Sand Castle by the Fairy Garden

Sand Castle by the Fairy Garden

Never ever in all my years
Has the human me built more
than a meticulously lumpy mound
of fussed over wet sand
sinking into
moat

But each attempt
is a day at the beach

Salt air and breeze
Freeing the spirit me

The playful me
The winsome me
Searching for shells
& believing in the treasures
at hand
