this started out as something ... different

passing the time

hot black sand
between my toes
feeling funny
thoughts sublimely travelling
through the cracks of mind
time watches
memories fade
and make way for new ones
belying horrors once wrought
where am I
that you are not?
sable beach
in the middle of nowhere
time and civility forgot ...

What I love about your work is how easy it flows, merges and settles on the reader's thoughts...superb x

I like the poem. You gave glances of places and thoughts. Left the reader to use the imaginations. I like the closing lines. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

It really was a rambling memory triggered by procrastination.

[Coyote Poetry]

I agree. You gave glimpses of memories.

[Madalyn Beck]

Beautiful. I pictured the sand flowing through this piece as it did with your toes and your mind. I love this one. xo (:

Pray tell Kit Kat what did it start of as because it ended up very nice yes?

[Lyn Anderson]

Believe it or not a bland piece on procrastination.

[Vidya Bacchus]

Oh well this is surely so much better yes?

I walked Sable Beach once and thoughts of that day are clearly foggy now....I doubt she sees it at all

and the title feels of double entendre'

It is, and it was, and life is ... well, the foggiest of clear memories ...

[Nia Hope]

I like this... wish I could just sit at the beach and well just be there. Wonderful piece :)

Nothing wrong with passing the time. Regardless of it's beginnings.

[Lyn Anderson]

Ahh, so true, I sat down to write about procrastination, and ended up scooping up historic sand from my memories.

A deserted beach is a beautiful thing

[Lyn Anderson]

a deserted beach full of wonderful memories is even better. Thank you.

the sand of time slips through our mind like the sand between our toes, and then, well, our memories fade, and then our mind starts to fade also.

Your mind is not fading, no way. :)
