Grains of sand speak to one another,
Spending their brief existences; wishing.
They have been eroded from limestone,
Yet the illusion of their significance remains.

Grains of sand are smaller than driftwood.
Miniscule particles residing in the dunes.
Sand dunes are merely an element of beaches.
Beaches are products of repetitive ocean tides.

Oceans are microscopic compared to skies.
Skies are crucial parts of blue and green planets.
Blue and green planets are but motes of dust,
Momentarily suspended in an infinite black.
