Desert

The creeping desert
sand fashions a million
wrinkles around my eyes.

That creeping desert of old age. Beautifully written, one of the most telling haiku I have ever read.

Thank you, Oldegg!

desert also keeps your skin dry (hence we need moisturizer) in Seattle, you don't age as fast.

So true, Zon! Humid climates are good for the skin..

great haiku - like how it effects the speaker...those nasty sands of time!

Nasty is right :)
