~The Thievery of Dolphins~

I sat on the sand

composing a poem

of freedom in my mind

Frustrated, I couldn't quite

find the perfect rhyme.

Dolphins out beyond

the far sand bar

played, and then in

sounds sent back to shore

clicked my verses back to me,

before heading out to open sea

Those dolphins took my

very thoughts, and left;

Leaving me

bereft.
