Drifting Words Into Place

Letters like feathers blow 
into place...
Meanings are scribed in a 
sentence I embrace...
With my fingers I carve into 
pages made of sand...
Like an hour glass of time words 
fall from my hand...
However they look a poetic rhyme 
shall be free...
With just another angle from the 
mind and soul of me...

Michael , have you seen America's Got Talent this year? where this one man creates pictures from sand? They show what he is creating on a big screen and it's stunning. This poem made me think of that.
