Sand

These little grains that nobody can count covers so much earth creating many a mount Children love it for play especially by the sea but in a great desert water’s rarely found to be God used sand to tell what would be Abraham’s seed a number no man can count for God alone knows indeed Next time we see sand think on it’s worth how many life’s it touched through life from birth poetgord@2013

Many a story can be told by a grain of sand. Some grains have lasted thousands of years. If told, would we understand. Nice one Gordon, and it's a pleasure to read you, James......
