the sand creeps
sand dunes grow gaining ground
marram holds all together
~~~
desert mountains… dunes
imperceptible movers
yet always growing
~~~
a windy day
a mile long sandy beach
not a place to be
~~~
sandy beaches
here one day… gone the next
hungry oceans
~~~
ripples in the sand
saltating grains form ripples
sand dunes nurseries
~~~
creatures of the sand
reptiles… insects… birds… mammals
oasis wildlife
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
