Sands of Time

Nature is a sandstorm…
It cannot be controlled
It cannot be tamed to be a lamb,

It cannot be turned on… or off,
But it can fall to form land, and even a man.
It’s the nature of the invisible to lift it aloft…,

Till physical strengths, grow weary, and exhaust.
To carry it on its ultimate journey,
To season it with grain, rains of petal flower.

And tend it in its final hour of rest.
Nature is a sandstorm…
And we, we’re all the sands of time.
