This is for the "Grains Of Sand" challenge created by Cendrine Marrouat

Thunder and lightning, could be you and me

the way we heat up, like electricity

The heat here between us, could start up a fire

we've got this connection, right down to the wire

*

The rain comes in waves, quenching the aftermath

burning through innuendos, creating a path

Leading to salvation, the sweet thrill of release

creating a safe haven, a true masterpiece

*

Like the sea to the shore, your love pulls me in

spreading your waves over the whole of my sand

The moon gazes on, as we build castles of desire

washing over us like a sweet cleansing of fire

*

After the storm, the breeze blows in a calm

and we mingle together, neath the fray of the palm

You, like the moon, hold me here in the glow

becoming one with the moon, and his ebb and flow

    Abstract poetry in motion. Sands of desire. Great take on the challenge,

    Kelli, this really is a perfect fit for the challenge. I love your line "spreading your waves over the whole of my sand" - to me, that captures the duality of plurality and individuality that sand and people carry.

    That was beautiful and very visual. Was this for the grains of sand challenge from Cendrine? . If so it’s a great entry.
