pounded by the waves
from rock solid and steady
slowly ground into the dust of the sea
carried
tossed
changed
white sand on the beach
sifted through fingers
time becomes eternity
catch it if you can
mold it
shape it
create from it the castles of your life
build it sure
for when the tide returns
it will crumble
beaten down yet again
to tumble
to be tossed
until the next pair of hands scoop it
into a parapet
a moat
a castle of hopes and dreams
does this cycle ever end
of being built up and beaten down
i guess not
they say there is more sand in the sea
than stars in the universe
aranos
catch me
don't let me go
capture me with your hands
shape me
mold me
make me into the clay of your future
an everlasting castle
holding your love and life
