Castles In The Sand
When I was young a trip to the beach
was wondrous and grand.
We would play in the sun,
swim in the water,
and build castles in the sand.
When I had my own children...
we’d spend hours on the beach.
We’d end up tired and tanned
after playing games,
chasing waves,
and building castles in the sand.
Nowadays I meet my grandchildren on the beach.
Our morning goes as planned.
We ride the waves,
search for shells,
and build castles in the sand.
Life’s moments slip away so fast
sometimes it’s hard to understand...
Perhaps that’s why we love creating
castles in the sand.
And why, when my wife and I walk along the beach
together hand in hand
We smile as we stop to visit
every castle in the sand..
Connecting to the past, ahhh,
Connecting to the past, ahhh, for those other days.
