Lines in Sand

Words and photo by S.W. Cosgrove

Wind from the west

sketches lines in sand on the beach;

to be erased with the next high tide.

As will our moments, days, lives;

only memories and shadows remain.

Harvest Moon ~ Bashō

Harvest moon:
around the pond I wander
and the night is gone

~ Matsuo Bashō
