They say she flutters,

A breath of air.

With the gentlest nudge,

She tugs them together,

And tears them apart.

We've never met.


She stands,

Back turned,

Facing the world,

Tapping shoulders and backs,

Hair of silver silk

Knotted in pairs.


I asked her, "What

Do they have

That I don't deserve?

Where am I

When they confess

And say yes?"


Her voice tinkles

Over the waves.

"You have so much

To do.

Don't let them

Distract you."


She walks along

The two-tone sand.

She pulses,

Unifying.

And my mind

Has its own metronome.
