Sandcastles
The wind whips a small girl's hair,
As gulls squall and fly over land.
The waves crash noisily upon the shore,
As the salty smell of sea invades the senses.
Flinging sand, running down the shore,
The children enjoy an afternoon of controlled chaos.
But one little girl is separate from the res,
An aura of calm emanating from her body.
She sits, quietly humming,
Hands busy working,
Creating,
Imagining,
Building.
The lump of sand in front of her begins to take shape,
Towers, turrets, walls and flags emerging,
A walled city of such magnificence,
It catches and holds the eye.
The girls' brow is scrunched, beads of sweat drip,
Concentration on her creation of perfection.
As her hands fly faster and faster,
The building grows higher and higher,
At last it is complete, with
sand people,
Walls,
moats.
As the sun begins to dip below the sealine,
And the waves creep higher up the beach,
She stands, transfixed with wonder.
Gazing at her masterpiece of sand.
She is saddened by the fact that her work is finished,
She misses the joy of creating.
She hears her mother calling,
and hastens to run to her,
But as she looks back she is shocked to see,
The wind is mightily blowing,
The waves are forcefully crashing,
and her beautiful sandcastle
Is falling,
falling,
falling.
