I am floating upon the
restless dreams I’ve collected.

The clouds have lifted
revealing the stars,
it rained so long I
forgot about them.

I once swam in the ocean,
I learned that I am not alone,
every grain of sand was collected
pushed upon the shore building beaches and mountains.

I am like a grain of sand,
life pushes me ashore I
build beaches and mountains.

We all are grains of sand,
waiting for the waves to
push us in the right direction.
