The grains of sand are many,

Plenty for all to share,

But once you look at the singular,

There's not enough to spare.

Once gone you can't get them back,

We lose plenty on projects we hold dear,

And more on creating a personal anorak,

Losing something I hold near.

Positivity is important;

And we can only learn by our mistakes,

Although cautious with my adventures,

In case my spirit breaks.

And now my journey continues,

So I hold my spirit up high,

As in life it's only two certain

We're born and then we die.

And now I pass you my gratitude;

Because your time is extremely precious,

And you've spent it reading these words,

Worth more to me than treasures.
