What Am I

I host thousands of creatures
And whisper to merry travelers,
spraying their furrowed faces with comfort.
My storms are wild and deathly.

I connect.
I disassemble.
I bring life.

I kiss sand in intervals,
blue, green, brown, white- I survive
Despite the debris thrown inside of me.

What Am I?






For PD's "What Am I" Contest.
