Childhood’s palaces –
Tributes to eternity,
Lost to tide and time
– Haiku by @BhhBurns
Moulding sand; yellow and brown,
So many castles, it’s like a small town,
A wave splashes over and they all fall down!
– Poem by @tyrannopaulus
Both islanders, we could’ve built sand castles together,
but I was a sea, destined to destroy,
and you, a steadfast palm tree.
– Poem by @CintzeSpeaks
Forgotten dreams
Ambition’s last stand
Fall to time and tide.
Like youth
& castles made of sand.
– Poem by @LightDarkWords
This kingdom
stands alone,
our backs
to the
shoals;
A salty moat
To fend off
the giants and
their swooping
gulls.
– Poem by @Poet_BDHildreth

– A Limerick by us, Imagine_forest
Along the shore
sand castles
glimmer
cinnamon gold
as the sun rises
on a new day
before the tides
wash all away.
– Poem by @cyclemaniac
Love to play
with my Kingdom by the bay
Such big dreams for baby, King, & Queen
OH NO!
To my dismay a wave washed it away.
– Poem by @ArielliCady
The tears started when he came back with the shells to decorate the sand castle only to find the sandy mound that remained.
– Short Story by @innerchanging
On crystal beaches
Where childhood dreams conquer all
Sand Castles still fall.
– Haiku by @saf_begum
