Along The Way

On a bright sunny day,

Walking by the seaside,

I met someone intriguing,

With a long grey beard,

Hiking on the high rocks,

Happy like a little child.

 

We nodded at each other,

As we navigated our ways,

He had a red and black stick,

The kind that we might think,

Seems somehow a bit much,

As it would not really help,

If the bees suddenly decided

To storm for my sweet snacks

 

I realized how foolish it sounded,

But I smiled on the way back.

It felt strange, like I met myself,

A few years further, as if destiny

Glitched and gave away its cards.

I hope I'll keep my dreaming ojitos,

And that sheepish, clumsy smile,

As the waves wave and the sun sets.
