The sun is blazing in the sky
The wind is blowing hot and dry
The sand is endless, vast and wide
A sea of gold that has no tide
The sand is soft beneath my feet
The sand is warm and smells so sweet
The sand is home to many things
A world of life that hides and sings
The sand is shifting with the breeze
The sand is sculpting dunes and seas
The sand is sparkling like a gem
A desert treasure, rare and dim
