Sand in the Sahara sifts like a sidewinder
Introducing stillness that shares peace with you and I
Light of day illuminates the whiteness of the stars against a bold night
Evaporating water drops leave a molten shell akin to the viper
Nautical coastal winds blow in dropping dew on scorpions’ scales
Concentrated beads of moisture vaporize like dreams lost in a long slumber
Every grain of sand spends itself in the hourglass of the desert’s lost time
