@humorousDay8793

Sand

There are those who seek me a lifetime but never do we meet, and those I kiss but who trample me beneath ungrateful feet.

At times I seem to favor the clever and the fair, but I bless all those who are brave enough to dare.

By large my ministrations are soft-handed and sweet, but scorned I become a difficult beast to defeat.

For though each of my strikes lands a powerful blow, when I kill I do it slow.

What am I?
