For a spec of gold

Have you ever tried holding on
To sand within a closed fist
To feel the grains
As they struggle gently pushing and finally
Drifting out from
The tiny gaps that
You didn’t realize you had
In your fist that you had closed so tight.
To open it later to
See it empty except those few grains
That stick at the corner of your fingers..
Reminding you that you had held your fist closed
Too long and too tight..
Look closer and there would be
A spec of gold in the gains that cling on to you
A spec that shines so bright
That it makes this whole ordeal
Worth living for and makes you hope for more
So you go back and grab a little more sand yet again….
Who knows what spec of gold awaits you now !!
