The Sand and The Snow

 

 

It is the winter of my desert

life

The sand's sexy shifting

become the snow's

deadly drifting

 

The heat of the sun ripe and

seductive in the

sultry sky

Morphs...that same sun taunting

and tantalizing

as I tremble.... uttering a frozen

cry

 

My tears ...frigid on my face,

weather worn

They freeze as do I, an
icicle formed from

 my 
sub zero scorn

Still life, frozen in time

The once lush green, vibrant

vine

Dies in the snow....only a

picture perfect

memory

A recall of the summer

half living deeply buried

under the drifts

of me

 

Sun Goddess so far away

I crave the hands of your heat

returning one day

As you touch me..... melting away

the

misery

Revealing the green and

gorgeous

vitality

That is the sexy shifting

of the sands of me....

alive

No longer surviving,

waiting

But knowing again what it

means to
THRIVE!
