Sand in the Wind

His eyes are not crazy or wild like mine

in contrast- he is the calm to my storm

Air to my earthiness.

No mud shall build up from the waters of intensity

Iam sure to be dried out and become unstuck

and finely swept along....

sweetly and simply

sand in the wind

Safely, lightly, this desert is our home

Here we have our peace.

Together there is balance, no absence of anything

Unspoken acceptance of untouchable territory

He has his own, and I have my story.

the earth is to me, the air is his glory

It rains here and there but never enough

to trap us in storm, he carries us along

like sand in the wind
