Tiny beads of fine sand Run laughing through my hand Right here at the beach With everything within reach My shovel and pail The ground so frail The constant roar The birds all soar Sandwiches with a crunch Always make a good lunch Salt fresh in the air Floating by a sand castle lair Everything seems so right Sleeping adults kids in fright Of the advancing tide Little ***** that try to hide All the kids come for the day they always want to stay The calm whistle of the breeze The ice cream that always seems to please The laughter of children floats about Its a happy place no doubt Filled with beach towels and old books To those secret rock nooks The beach holds many mysteries Each with its own history
