For an Instant











i.

 tide rolls
smooth pebbles
into disappearing
trails on beach sand

ii.

 for an instant,
I touch a firefly,
burn its green glow 
into my lining
and remember 
passion

iii.

 little 
    love 
         notes
         and 
    rose 
petals

iv.

 how fully 
I recall your voice 
murmuring whispered 
"I love you’s"
amid the echo of gull cry
