I walk
with sun in my face
and wind at my back
rocks line the scape
waves crash the shore
sand seeps into the cracks
of my toes
and tiny winged footprints
scurry along
the sun shines into my eyes,
I gaze towards its pull
then lower the brim
my feet pass over and over
I think I see and recognize all.
Then in an instance,
the universe appears
with all its gentle might
revealing a cast of new colors
and sights
opening slumber with fireflies,
removing sleep from my eyes
as I walk, and walk
with the luster of new light.
