Water washes,
Repeatedly over stones,
Gently turning them to sand;
Specks upon this land
Time is water for us
Slowly wearing away
Security we once had
And now all we have,
Is nothing
But sand in our pockets
And love lost in the waves.

I often feel as if my life is sand in cupped hands... Yes, a fine metaphor for surrender and release. You write very well Linley. love, Allie xxxx
