Agate on Beach.jpg

Found

I found an agate
On the beach last night
And held it up to the light
Like you and I used to do

I miss those days
When you would beg me
To pick you up from school
So we could spend the weekend
At the beach together
Just you and me
Playing games
Making puzzles
Finding treasures

I dropped the agate into my pocket
And watched the cool autumn sun
Slide behind the hill
Now it’s me begging you
To find time
To be together
