• the last day

  the whole was in her hands
  she rocked and held our weight.
  and while i gazed at them,
  she gave another whirl.
  
  and twirl and twirl they did;
  then laid upon the sand.
  i heard them laugh out loud
  their voices like the tides.
  
  i saw the sun today-
  like shells, was swallowed whole.
  embraced by both, i drowned.
  immersed, i sank in joy.
