I'M Steel Hard

I am not strong, Nay, I am fragile I am shining amongst the sunlight And rolling in the strongest Gale Don't wonder who I am, alas, On the beach, I am standing as such Facing the rises and sets of the sun And going up and down with the tides I am the sands, the broken stones Which have once been the mountains, afar Though smashed bit by bit, I am steel hard

This is an interesting perspective that you share. We do not often think about the beginning of things. Mountains reduced to grains of sand. If hit by lightning it will change to glass. Maybe your title can be Glass Mountain.
