Castles

Words tingle like gentle tides
caressing mind and body,
truth that comforts the soul.

A brilliant smile flashes
like a bolt of lightning across
a calm summer sky,
dazzling its muse.

The ocean reflects rays of
sunlight, brightening shores
of seclusion with hope.

Adoration runs clear, like water
washing over the hands
of an artist…

These words are more than
castles in the sand.
Watch closely, as smiles
turn them to glass.
