At island’s shoreline

Standing as if I were its

Lone sad visitor

Watching water move…a vague

Frothed green, some blue of his eyes…

Smelling flowers’ perfume, salt–

Skin sticky with sweat

I tasted tears, rolling wave

After heartbreak’s wave

And let them have their own say

Fingers not blotting harsh truth…

Despite foolish dreams

He’d not been on loan to me–

Only courtesy

Of grand imagination

I cling to, cannot un-clench

Thank God for post-it notes…as memory abandons me I find I’m buried in yellow squares…could be worse!  I just wish they could sort themselves out…how the heck am I supposed to remember what or where or why the note I wrote applies?
