Oasis

Opelescent sky casting a pink glow

As I walk slowly through the hourglass of time

Somewhere in the middle of nowhere 

I find your footprints on the sand

Spring water flows across the desert of my heart



Inspired by andrea deitrich's five word acrostic contest
Not for contest but andrea tnks for the inspiration


Reposted cause I mistakely erased my previous acrostic
Tnks for all who commented in my previous post
