A Grain of Sand – Northern Territory Series

A Grain of Sand – Northern Territory Series

A Grain of Sand 
In the grey light 
cows form single files
small animals skitter
across damp grass
babies snuggle,
children wriggle,
lovers love
And dreamers dream.
Headlines thud
against closed doors.
Early risers rise.
A hand reaches out and touches only
space.  *
