To Nicole, my beloved friend


Go with the flow of life
Ride the tides to the end
The heaviest surf is
Between those tides
And yet we stay afloat as
We drift to the shore

We are but mere grains of sand
Deposited on the shore of life
Sometimes we are made in to castles
Or wonderful sculptures
Carefully molded by loving hands

Sometimes we are walked up on
By life’s cruel feet
Our souls broke and we are
Once again swept out to sea
On the waves of life
