IN THE SEA OF LIFE AND THE SANDS OF TIME
IN THE SEA OF LIFE AND THE SANDS OF TIME
As the sun continues to rise,
As the moon continues to wane and wax,
Here I am, continuing to wave on
The wrinkling sea of life, streaming to its shores,
To froth and seep deep into the waiting sands of time;
Here to canvas clanging conch-like echoing footprints:-
As the sun continues

Sands of Time
you let love slip through your fingers
where you once held the key
now you're haunted with regret
and have nowhere else to flee

Ephemeral Time
Sifting through the sands of time
Ephemeral it fades away
As water flows down the river
It's constantly on the move
Time and tide waits for no one
Instead of lamenting the past
We should seize every moment
Fulfil our dreams and wishes
Till our time on this earth is over
And death knocks at our door.

The sands of time
The sands of time
Sand castles
Sand is the word
Inexplicable
To seemingly mold
Itself into time
We are Sand...

locked in the sands of time
Out of the past came a voice,
A voice that was hushed by time.
It said to me in a voiceless plea,
We are the ones that went before.
The ones who were once loved and adored.
Our lives were like sand on the ocean floor.
In timeless metre and oceanic roar.
We say what many have said before,
Weep not for us

Sands of time
Life starts out with a slate so clean,
As the sands of time begin with a trickle
It begins with a word and then a wound unseen
More words, then everything turns physical.
As the sands of time begin to flow
A heart begins to bleed
Hanging on to a hope for a better tomorrow
Trying to come to grips, it’s not

Sands of Time
As I stand withstanding the blistering sand that beats my back and stings my eyes I have no choice but to deal with life on how it's dealt to me, some of the good and bad choices along the way, the sands buries my feet to the point I almost can't move them?

Sands of Time
When I stand on the shore, everything makes sense.
I am forced into the now.
All of my senses are being utilized as nature intended.
I experience comfort.
My fear of death fades away.
The air smells refreshing, salty.
The wet sand under my feet and the wind at my face feels just right.
I can see eternity.
I am temporary and that

The Sands of Time
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 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 2
The sands of time keep raging,
ever silent.
The lines upon my face,

Abandoned Roads On the Sands of Time
Abandoned Roads on the Sands of Time
David J Walker
Inherent the stolen lands
Claimed and abandoned
By forgotten hands
Inventory incomplete
Innocence replete
with sin
And/then
do it again
And again
Believing in steepleless and
Invented gods
At odds
With the believingless

Sands of Time
I started life as a grain of sand,
But knew I’d find a way to expand,
And always being a bit of a rebel,
I joined with others and became a pebble,
And as I grew and then took stock,
I realised that I had become a rock,
And as I become more confident and grow older,
I wonder if I’ll become
