I tip-toe on the beach on a cool Spring morning;
I hear the tide come in an see the footprints die.
I lift a seashell to my ear and hear a warning;
the sound resembles an eternal apathetic cry.
I throw the shell down in a fit of hysterical fear;
how could such a beautiful sunrise on a beach turn grim?
I glide across the water-glistened sand and horrifically peer;
it is a sight that makes the sun turn dim--
a lack of footprints on the freshly damp sand.
I contemplate the intangible evidence of my presence
and realize the world is not altered as I stand on the sand on the sunlit land.

Profound write and it leaves a message to think on here. There is depth in this one.
Nicely written with beautiful images.
