quote: " Life is Dry as a desert, lest you find the oasis of love" .. Tanu Vermani In timeless talk, with a grain of sand I sat, From beaches wide to river's flat. Voiceless, yet with tales profound, Ages old, and wars unbound. Through time's vast expanse it flew, With camel caravans it grew. Desert battles, blood-stained land, Sands bear witness, silent stand. On beaches, joy and love they share, Sand castles rise, dreams declare. Sculptures formed, by hands that craft, In shifting dunes, a moonlit draft. Amongst it all, a whispered plea, Unity brings salvation, see.

Hello Jay, You beautifully capture the essence of life's journey through the metaphor of a grain of sand. Your words create a picture of the timeless wisdom held within the smallest of particles. From desolate deserts to bustling beaches, the grain of sand witnesses the spectrum of human experiences. I love how your words convey a message of unity and love amidst the vastness of existence, reminding us to seek peace in connections that transcend time and space. Truly, a reflection of profound insight and empathy. - Blessings, Daniel

Outstanding, Jay! Creative and a fabulous entry for the contest. The cadence and rhyme scheme was perfect. I especially liked: Sculptures formed, by hands that craft, In shifting dunes, a moonlit draft. Best wishes with the contest! Enjoy your evening, Sara
