My response to the secret keeper’s Weekly Writing Prompt #46
Squally day
hurries threat of rain,
gone blurry
out to sea:
she’s pretending not to care
as it tugs her hair.
Left behind
in the damp, dun sand,
his footprints,
just a hint,
residue of times they shared,
wedding vows declared.
The tracks reach
down the tipping beach,
washing clear,
they disappear
in a quicksilver sea change:
love and life are strange.
