I saw a girl and her brother building a sand castle. I guess they had to leave, because I turned around and they were gone. The castle was left unfinished; There were lumps where there could’ve been towers If they’d only pleaded “five more minutes.” Anyways, I saw and boy and his sister come across the other pair’s sand castle. Just passing through- and it was through, because I turned around and the castle was gone. It was left as a pile of wet sand with footprints stamped into it; Rubble where there could’ve been restoration If they’d only pleaded “five more minutes.”
