Lights break softly on silky rain
Luminescent beads beat dark sands into submission
Each drop brings on a new shape that wasn't before
We never keep anything we touch
Shapes shift as they come into our grasp
Humans destroy that which we don't understand
And embrace change as though it were within our nature
Awakening, the moon changes patiently
Phases shift between new and old
Just as everything begins, so it ends
