A Billion Grains of Sand
November 17, 2010
A billion grains of sand fall past
Each minute of my life,
And I have but two hands.
The stream does not stop,
Never has, never will.
I stand knee-deep in its deposit.
Tell me, why should I think much
Of the grain which escapes me,
Or already covers my feet?
Surely, those I have caught
and held to my eyes
are worth far more.
