Sandstorm

The sands are slipping
Changing our landscape
As the night winds blow cool
Removing the sun's heat

Still I lay--parched
Yet shivering
I long for the heat
To quench me
Before I'm buried
In your winter sandstorm.

The imagery that is presented carries the essence of the statement the author is making and it is a powerful one. Your words speak in a metaphoric voice and supply the catalyst to spark further thought. Emile. #7

Emile, I may have thanked you on your page, or I may have changed pages before the reply fully posted, but thanks so much for your wonderful review.
