Some Hearts Aren't Meant To Be Kept

written by: Gray Skies

@seattlegray03

She walks along the coast, hair tossed carelessly as the wind sweeps in off the waves.
Crows keeping pace, singing their song as they make their way up the shore.
She is no longer of this world, the ocean calls her and the sky keeps her.
Trying to hold onto her will be as trying to grasp a fist full of sand.
Some hearts aren't meant to be kept, only savoured as they pass by.

Doug Stanfield (Hemmingplay)

“Hemmingplay,” is the pen name of Doug Stanfield, who grew up on a family farm in western Ohio, went with his parents for two years in Karachi, Pakistan, in high school and had lived, until recently, in Bellefonte, PA with his late wife, Wilda and their two sons, Ben and John. Doug was a writer, editor and director of internet communications at Penn State for 26 years. He has had a few disreputable occupations, including newspaper reporter and editor, and public relations flak, but is trying to make amends for his sins by writing poetry and fiction. When his sons were safely off making their own mistakes, he turned on the computer one day, stared at the screen, and began to learn the craft anew at age 67. Doug has published three books: "Mermaid Sisters: First Dive", a children's book; "I Came From A Place of Fireflies" and, "Snowflakes & Ashes: Meditations on the Temporary”.
