Inside sand box memories lay buried plastic army men
outside sandy reveries, shoes and socks lay married
happy feet curl, feeling grainy treasures deep
In shade's lee, above, lodgepole tree with singing wren
these theater birds, all limelight, in leaves varied
peep remembrances, chirp and cheep of cherished day
warm and breezy grass-bend-sighs, passing into keep
now feet in socks in shoes walk home along a mindful way
