Signs

O.B. Reily Road makes a steep curve as it drops
through ages of Oregon geology to cross the Tumalo River.
All along the rapid descent boulders break off,
undermined by the loss of their supporting layers.
Midway down, to the left, a pocket of vertically fluted sand
swings off, creating a wide place to rest. There
lovers come and carelessly inscribe their names
in sandy hearts. The frail sand and tiny river rocks
drip down relentlessly under the force of light winds.
Every year new names appear,
every year they are blown away.
Maybe someone should put up a sign.
