Feldspar, Quartz, calcium and granite
slip slowly through my hand
Crushed by time
into small grains of sand
A Millennia of time
shaping the ground where I stand
Stretching for miles
under sea and over land
Time held together
by this last fragile strand
As the beginnings of life
slip slowly through my hand

Feldspar, Quartz, calcium and granite
slip slowly through my hand
Crushed by time
into small grains of sand
A Millennia of time
shaping the ground where I stand
Stretching for miles
under sea and over land
Time held together
by this last fragile strand
As the beginnings of life
slip slowly through my hand
You can over think while sitting on a quiet beach
