Life Thus

An expression life’s inevitable challenges softening and enlightening one’s soul.

Living temporal waters swept
Grain of sand from off a grievous shore
And for a time it slept
From clinging grounds of fear was torn
Swept unto uncharted depths
And carried along the ragged floor.

The journey far and unknown to each
The grains are roughed and smoothed.
To be delivered ashore a calming beach
Sands soft as dust upon the moon.
