The Sand among Stars
Minted surface, swirling high.
Silent breath, a frosted goodbye.
Underneath, in sand set.
Shapes of land, that never met.
Wind that carries, news and sound.
Spreads words that, by laws are bound.
Busy feet, of blinded sight.
Thought processes, glued to pride.
Opened cans, of self-constraint.
Burnt words, and power regained.
Network of battle, heads held to the ground.
As dotted nights, overhead are let down.
A vibrant bubble, layered on watch.
The only sand among stars, in the lot.
Evocative words, well capturing the myriad mysteries of space .
