Brown Sands

Brown Sands Lifting hands To hold as we walk the heat drenched beach Sun risin' Red horizon Nearly within our striding reach Footprints measure Our mortal treasure That is ours for a brief time Between our toes A mystery unfolds Of rich, Brown Sands so fine

The contrast human acitivity and the sands is such a perfect metaphor for our mortality. Tremendous poem, powerful lines.
