L'aura del Campo

Sandman counts the stars

Sandman counts the stars

Like castles that defy the waves,
Sandman stands at the glistening
shores of a new day counting each star
as the tide embraces his feet,
starting over each time he wobbles;
until, like time, he washes away,
each grain seeking its own destination;
the stars blinking out in dismay.
