Welcome to P and Q! So happy to see you here and looking forward to read more of your work on the site. I really love this poem by you. The word choice and scenery, it's like fresh air.

Thank you Rania, and thanks for posting your inspirational poetry.
I love that you say my poem is like fresh air. I want, more than anything, to achieve exactly that. To touch the heart, mind and spirit. Not necessarily as the great writers do, with an arrow that cuts or wave that bowls you over in breathless wonder - but perhaps as a feather landing on your lawn just before sleep drags you off the bed.

Woah, blown away by this piece and your talent and lyricism! I looked up Erroll Garner and listened to him while reading this. I didn't even know who he was, so thank you for that. Quite enchanting.

Your voice is strong in this, and the specifics make this poem even more unique and "you".

My favorite part about this piece is your differentiation between "dust" and "sand", and how you incorporate that. The often biblical notion of returning to dust, back to ashes we came from, and here, the symbol of the sand. The way it travels, is infinite. There's hope in this, a romance that could possibly blossom, a heart open to give love and be loved.

Please keep sharing! A warm welcome to the site :)

Lovely piece, I really love the verses

"That way, you can wash over me,
Like an endless breath, hitchhiking to eternity."

It's calming, serene, full of yearning, and wonderfully written.

Welcome to the site!

This is masterfully written. It's rich with nostalgia and warmth, and I'm really looking forward to seeing more writing from you. I love concrete references in poetry, it really adds to the authenticity and your voice.

Welcome to P&Q!

A warm welcome to the site.
