Haiku Friday. ‘Sands’. A haiku trilogy.

1. Beachhead
Beachhead: we arrive.
They abscond over the dune
sea, we soon give chase.

2. Flight
The flight of the few.
Seeking life beyond the dust,
they long to escape.

3. Lost
The sand shifts under
foot, the minuscule grains flow.
The chased are soon lost.
