Grains of Sand
Grains of Sand
The little girl strolls considers every step
innocent but alone; the loyal dog follows
Grains of sand squeeze between her toes
Her freedom a privilege not yet known
comforted by silence ; the graceful eagle flies
Grains of sand beneath her bare soles
Lost within her own for minutes and hours
deserted for fortune; the zillion ants crawl by
Grains of sand smooth her small hands
Forever embedded within her warm soul
charmed by experience; the nurtured memories rest
Grains of sand vanished below green land
