The ocean, here I stay.
And watch my sandcastle
Be washed away
The castle I spent hours building
Collecting shells for hearing
Using sticks for people; children
This, my big sandcastle kingdom
Of course I had expected the waves.
Built a huge moat
Bringing my kingdom water
They would use for days
But the water kept flowing
Altering the sand
It reached my walls
And as though it were a hand
It swept my buildings, my little shops
My shells for hearing
And my stick people ran aloft
My kingdom was ruined
By the unforgiving waves
But I did not weep
For I would just rebuild again
But to say I did not learn a lesson
Would be a lie so to say
Because the lesson I learnt that day
Was that I and the iteration of the ocean
Were the same
