Shifting Sand Comments

A Stick In The Sand Or A Stick In The Mud? a stick in the sand hidden is more dangerous treacherous in shifting meaning than solid avoided predictable stuck seen stick in the mud Copyright © Terence George Craddock Inspired by the poem 'Shifting Sand' by Charles Henry Soutar. Dedicated to the poet Charles Henry Soutar.

Seems a stick in the sand, is more dangerous treacherous, in shifting meaning, than a mere stick in the mud.

Earthy and gritty poem cast from wide experience. Good ink.

Whew..so much of toil n memories buried in futile sand....the pain of toil n more toil with no yield

'wasted work and vain regret'. That sums it up. Very figurative, instructive and deep. Kudos to the poet

I believe there is more behind this poem shifting sand than usual erosion, The societal moral erosion like greed, hypocracy and naiveness. Smart poem.

Enjoyed this very much. Mike
