August slipped away….
The lovely sunny days and birthdays,
the sweet smell of ice cream and the ocean,
the laughs and joys of childhood,
all washed away with the waves.
I used to collect little treasures,
every time we went to the beach,
when I was a child.
I had a collection of seashell treasures,
now lost and gone with time.
Older and wiser,
but still learning new things each waking moment.
So I take a deep breath and close my eyes,
as I feel the time flowing by.
August slipped away….
And it shall slip away again and again with time.
A shatteringly lovely reminder that,
time truly doesn’t wait.
