Sandcastle Dreams

By Starburst

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Nothing is really as it seems On the shores of the bright blue sea While drifting about in mind and soul I dremt up my sandcastle dreams At the perfect time, on the sand They take each other hand in hand And dance and prance and jump all around On the shores of the sea, their native land Then they build up their castles, it seems Guided by the moon's gentle beams These are the things that I see while I sleep While I'm dreaming my sandcastle dreams And inside these walls People, some big and some small All gather here in good times and fun With music playing, they have a grand ball They feast and they dance, all through the night They are all happy and feeling just right Then the sun quietly peeks out of the sky And the whole world begins to get light As the sun showers the world with its radiant rays The little people stop their parties and plays They scatter and dive into the ocean blue This cycle will go on for many more days The waves wash ashore and no one is here No traces left behind of the little people, so dear Their secret is kept by the sun and the moon You never will find them, no matter how long you peer Nothing is ever as it seems On the shores of the bight blue sea While drifting about in mind and soul I dream up my sandcastle dreams2000, Written November 9th, 2001 © on Nov 09 2001 09:04 AM PST   0 • 10
