When I was in love
Stars mixed with the sand.
Did only I realize this, or understand?
When I got married
That sand shone the stars
Then started to grind them away.
When I got divorced
The sand had ground those stars to grains.
Piles of sand litter my days.
Piles of sands litter my nights.
Where are the stars?
Where are the stars?
Wow! The irnoic tone reminds me very much of Cavafy's best.
Starward
Stars and Sand
Thank you for your short but powerful comment. And a first, for me. Cavafy. Super
