Sand the Soul

19 May 2006


Was sand the soul
or a kingdom to a dawn
This new day in hope
living in ages to come

More than seventeen
a song once heard on high
Just to savour a moment
and think of love

Distance counts, pain from inside
a door of knocks to endure
Each draft, another to partake
maybe tomorrow was to grow old

Not wanting to discourage
nor to take away that in pride
another step forward
another path to open on the road


“She’s more than seventeen.
she’s more than you could dare to dream.
Yeah daddy's little girl has grown up
faster than he ever could have thought.”
Lyrics: “More than Seventeen”
written by: Adrina Thorpe
USA Singer/Songwriter



a poet who cares
