Analysis of Sand In The Waters
Sand In The Waters
In the surface of the sea problems
Carried away with the streams of grievances
Can be drowned in the river of sorrows
To follow as small, striving stones
Rolling on a current and waves cannot be straightened
On a peaceful ways of sand of stillness
Fall of Serenity inside at all sides of circumstances.
