We had fun, Throwing rocks at every beach we stopped at. Kids yelling, throwing sand. Little baby boys screaming, Face-planting the sand... Beach to beach Pebbles and stones Into the water Until there was one, With rocks not for throwing, But for stacking. Not destroying, But building.

EERRGGHHHHHHH I AM SO BEHIND. Think of landmarks you know. There are the big ones, nationally known, touristy places. There are the landmarks that are more personal to us -- in our towns, in our relationships. Write a poem about landmarks, big or small. Here's a parameter you are welcome to ignore if you'd like, but if you don't, try to write this in at least 4 3-lines stanzas.
