Lucid Waking

The arts of BNielsen

Desert Treasure

Sifting through sand
To find what is lost:
Treasures unnumbered,
Riches beyond cost:
Silver more numerous
Than tons of gold,
Statues more beautiful
Than the eye can behold,
More color in carpets
Than the sky at dusk…
And all of it gone…
The ages turned it to dust.

  • About Lucid Waking

    Lucid Waking is a literature and art blog that started as Shades of Pink in 2004. Lucidwaking.net has housed my fiction since June 2006 and shortly after grew to include art and photography. Most of the written work is in a draft phase--although gone through a precursory edit--and should be evaluated with a grain of salt. Every year Lucid Waking grows and gets better and I hope to keep satisfying my readers.
