What do you think of this poem?

Question

I am not the author.

"The Shepherd of the Sands"

By his will the grains will bend
like sight against a looking glass
By the story of his life
The world would change
but the sea of the sun would swarm to its master
And all that was done will be done again
When he lifts his hand
When he chooses to try

By life his desert will slip away
like reading into an abyss
By the scars on his face
The words would prove true
but the sound of his faith would fall under their feet
And the cracking of this image will unfold again
When he stands so high
When his beauty is not the world's

By his love the sands will bury
like clouds o'er hatred's grave
By the choice he has made
The thought of emotion would die
but the lost light in memory would always be hope
And the instance of reliving will redeem again
When his story wakes him
When his dusts clear the stones

Answer 1

I enjoyed it. I do believe that its words can be interpreted in many different ways and that is what a poem is suppose to do, hopefully give the reader what they are looking for and while many will read it, hopefully many will understand it or at least try to relate to it.
