Infinite Sands

Oh, speak to me,

dear sands of desert,

infinity shifting ‘neath my feet

Oh, sing to me,

you craggy mesas,

abundant, eternal, your soul’s replete

with histories

and mysteries

you who are my sisters, please

reveal it, I entreat

the timeless secret for which we yearn,

that holds the lesson we’re here to learn

that God remains complete

For you and I, dear mesas, sands,

are cupped forever in eternal hands

that gently hold us all together –

mankind, stars, plants and weather

we’re all beloved of the Father
