The
Sand


It looks so simple
like sand pouring
slowly down an
hourglass
and
oh
I
do
wish
it           but
it                  is
so                     much
harder                    time
is                          merely
the                          glass;
I
have to
be the sand.

This was definitely worth waiting for, my friend... the format is spectacular... the poem defines beauty. *S*

I don't know how you do it... but I'm sure glad you do! *S*
