Poem a Day: 10

Tombolo

I am just one grain of sand
reaching for an island
that I will never touch.

You are just one grain of sand
reaching for an island
that you will never touch.

You are just one grain of sand
reaching for an island
that you will never touch.

You are just one grain of sand
reaching for an island
that you will never touch.

Grains of sand,
we catch
one upon each other,
as waves circle round,
til we start to stretch like silk, and maybe
a thousand thousand years from now
we will bridge a gap.
