Upon Visiting The Beach Poem by Luz EtchemendiGaray

Upon Visiting The Beach



I outlined your figure;
I wanted to make a drawing of your shadow
on the sand of the beach.
I have sketched your eyes, your mouth,
your silhouette.

Gusts of wind will shift the lines,
the fragile lines I have drawn.
Later the sea will come
to erase your presence
with its mantle of oblivion;

I hope it will also
erase my nostalgia.
