I thoroughly enjoyed reading this poem. All the words that you chose to use fit in perfectly, and really caused me to picture walking down a beach. I especially liked when you said,” Sand encrusts my feet as I walk upon the beach each grain is a memory of mine sticking between my toes clinging to my wrinkled skin unwilling to let go.” This makes me think that a person is walking along the shore of a beach, and reflecting about all the memories that he or she has. However, they also realize that more memories are going to form. Another line that I favored was,” I see the upcoming horizon with the reds and oranges of the lowering sun making the sand sparkle.” I can vividly picture the sun setting over a beach, causing beautiful colors to be visible in the sky, and making the sand sparkle. You did a incredible job on this poem, I hope to read more from you.
