Sand sifter

I have finally completed my first piece. Although it seems a little backwards, I was never sure what to do with my first piece until I had an idea of where I was going. I decided to call my first piece, "sand sifter". It's meant to simulate rolling waves of water as well as the swooshing of sand followed by frustration of not being able to find anything in the sand but having the odd sparkle jump and catch the eye. I kept a lot of the same chords from my very first playing of the piece but I have reworked the rhythm of the chords to help with the imagery. The most difficult part is figuring out the perfect ornaments and chords to simulate a sparkle amongst the mess but I hope I can get it right.
