The water crept up to meet my skin

Then retreated, away from me

I sat on the sheet of cool, soft sand

Hardened by years of this same dance

That I was now taking part in

Again the crystal swept under my legs

A cool blanket, coating my limbs

I wondered how the sand must feel

Tempted so by this sensation

Only to be abandoned again and again

I stood and wandered closer

The water nipped at my thighs 

I wondered how it would feel

When the ocean could not slip away

Because I'd decided I'd not let go 

And dance in its depths

Eternally.
