Scorching hot sun..
Sun rays omitting intense heat
The flames of fireballs ignite..
Desert air ..
So dry and still..
A cactus thrives in desert paradise..

Sands of time..
Heat soars to the sky by day..
By night the heat plummets..
Evaporates ..
Moonlight shines..
Drenched in coldness
Chilled air and a frosted moon..
Extremities exist..
Drastic changes occur..

Sands...

I wiggle my toes in the sands of time,
sifting through the grains and the years gone by.
Lamenting those years I was in my prime.
How fast, they seem now, to have flown by.

Sifting through the grains and the years gone by,
I recall the adventures in my...

.....I give you my all through the sands of time 
.......As your hearts rhythm beats with mine 
............Your face reflects my touch within 
..............As the sifting sands pour within 
.................You fill my arms forevermore 
...................Lips of wine wanting more 
.........................As time sifts through 
...............................A sky...

A full moon descends beyond the distant dunes
freshly scented air breezing palm as desert breath
calm are the whispers upon a much cooling surface
momentary is the solitary life facing certain death.....

As I sit 'neath infinities blanket of stars
sifting sand through my fingers and hands
I ponder those...

The sands of time

Vs 1
The sands of time keep moving,
ever faster.
I notice as each day passes by

Bridge 1
Why doesn't time have some mercy on me?
The sands of time are going to bury me
So, I live each day without a care,
bend my knees in earnest prayer

Vs...

Wet sand oozes between my toes,
gooey as grandma's homemade jam.
And imprinted on a clean slate,
fresh footprints form along the shore.

Gooey as grandma's homemade jam;
the sand squishes between my toes.
And memories get created,
exploring these tactile feelings.

Imprinted upon a clean slate;
staggering steps get recorded.
A hodgepodge of runaway...

Sands of Time
A. W. Nutter

Viewing the world through opaque glass
Sands of time getting low in the hourglass
Friendships and treasures acquired in vain
Blinded to the truth in this worldly domain 

Spiritual essence of creation is withering
Traveling toward a preordained ending
Wolf in sheep clothing ascends into power
The...

THE SANDS OF TIME

We stop-- unquestioning the expertise of our Game ranger
focused--examining sand and road for tracks
Uncomprehending, we ponder waiting for clues he may disclose –the light of dawn

Finally- three words:”Do you see?”
A revelation for him
We try to discern—revealing imprints on a dusty road

Man of...

The Sands of Time

Admiring the beauty of the ocean waves
Drifting towards the land
I wondered about the journey they travelled
To eventually reach the sand
I’ve always dreamed about taking a journey
To a place along the sea
Where every moment is timeless
In a world of magic and mystery

You and...

On the wings of a seagull the sun slowly sets
   Time flows through the dying light
 Like the seconds the hourglass begets
   Each grain of sand in time will write
 The days and years of humanity's plight
