A living being you are no more <br />Washed up upon an ocean shore <br /> <br />Present shape unwittingly chosen <br />Branches in time forever frozen <br /> <br />A lonely statue on a sandy beach <br />Waves clawing just out of reach <br /> <br />Bleached pale by the blistering sun <br />Wind dancing past just for fun <br /> <br />At night you great the pale moon <br />Knowing the morning will be coming soon <br /> <br />Grains of sand now cover limbs <br />The light for them now slowly dims <br /> <br />Covered completely but at what cost <br />Buried forever and to eternity lost<br /><br />Vaughn Bekker<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/driftwood-19/
