Give and Take

We go searching for diamonds on the water.

Captured light.

Eyes, wide at the sight.

Lowered hands,
keen to grasp just a few,
show nothing but
the lacquer finish
of moving water.

Diamonds to feel,
not touch.

Diamonds on the water,
glisten when
kissed
by wind.

There to be
taken in.

Transient.

Gone with the day.
