Like Sand Art Through the Hourglass
by Janet S. Tiger
My daughter had to throw out the pictured sand art (above) I could not do it - even with her permission. She had made the sand art - actually salt art - when she was about five years old. So this memento had items she had last touched with her hands when her hands were five.
She wrapped it in a bag and placed it in the pail - I sniffled a bit as everyone laughed at me (as usual)
The words from an old soap opera rang in my brain - like sands through the hourglass, so, too, are the days of our lives. I think the name of the show was....Sands Through the Hourglass. Or could it have been ....Days of Our Lives?....Can't recall..... So much for accurate memories of the past.....
