Tsunami

Caught in a tsunami. :(
Rip currents of fear and desire (It was such a peaceful day.)
Big egos and small: people, deer,  dogs, mice, insects and even parasites
Gasp for air, bend, break, drown and are washed out to sea.

But, a grain of sand is immortal and impervious (and beautiful). 
It barely notices the upset.

Wouldn't it be nice to welcome and cherish
the unbearable drama of the giant wave
with the humility and equanimity of a grain of sand? :)
(Is the grain of sand laughing?)
