PAINTING STUDIO Stars And Sand A Poem In Time By Stephen Craig Rowe

IMG_2800

     Stars rain and shine in grains of sand.  Take to the wind and flower as seas sweep the sands within and without tides that ever flow under diamond skies.   Wild dogs crack the silence with mad howling foam touching all of the seas and shores.  Freight trains rumble as steel wheels spark dark flashes in the valley of tears and stars rain to shine in grains of sand.  Pale strong fingers scratch the screen window rather like a moth fluttering for light, or away, from light.  A moon lit outline on the sand in silence.  Holding on as ever one may hold on to the light in the heat and chill of night while stars rain and shine in grains of sand. 

As ever be well,  Stephen Craig Rowe

The rose and the words are beautiful Stephen!

Are you all settled in for the tremendous heat expected today and tomorrow?

If I ever conquer my fear of Rt29 I think another dinner would be fun.

I will pray that they are invisible as just another grain of sand there.
