Every night
at midnight
i run down to the beach
to sit and watch the show
i sit and watch the
moonlight dance across
the waves of time
sparkling with each crash
shimmering on every drop
watch it glint off seashells
and feathers
and the little crabs
that bite my toes
when i walk in the sand
watch each wave crash
and count them until
the sun rises over
the little hill behind my house
and i walk home again
to wait once more
for the night beach to show
