Sand and Time
Dust swirls around sandaled feet Coffee and snow; chocolate and night. Cloth of moonless sky brushes that pristine, pure and bright. Heads bowed, bodies bent Hands clasped against a fall. Slowly pushing against the wind, Shadows on pink sandstone wall. Married, met, and fell in love A path they’ve walked for forty years. From woven tent to marble arch, Through vale of joy and veil of tears. Eyes undimmed by endless sun See clearly to the past. Two lives, two souls, inseparable Love always young, forever lasts.
