Dusty Dust

Poor pygmy dust how long would you hide?
                                        Every side your brethren never died


                                        Possessed the wand of lady fairy
                                         If the mood of weather is rainy


                                    Sweet in every foot who touched its cheek
                                  Approach the French kiss, feet drowned by trick


                                          Really often ignore the dust's use
                                            But without it truly no soil use


                                           My friend dusty dust I'm insecure
                                          Your freedom to live always secure

This was very striking and full of impact. I'm really impressed with this. "Approach the French Kiss, feet drowned by trick"...fantastic line.
