I descend beneath the veil,
a silken thread woven in twilight.
Whispered echoes of the sky
Are stitched into the fabric of earth.
Cascading from cloud to desert,
I marry with grains, ephemeral kin.
Hush, oh restless dunes,
Your breaths are the songs of ancestors
Treading softly on the furrows
Whence I splatter and gather,
a subterranean dream.
Ebb with me, like an ancient tide,
a lullaby bristling in yellowed sands,
my crystalline heart reflecting
the cosmos in each transient echo.
Dunes shifting in secret reverie,
their timeless dance draws me near.
I am but a guest, a fleeting sigh,
tethered to memories of the heavenly womb.
Drift with the growing dusk,
as I quench the thirst of sunlit relics,
scattered, yet one,
beneath the eternal aubade of stars.
