Sandcastles in the Deep

Sandcastles in the Deep

I walk on the beach...
I find you,
Making a sandcastle,
But the waves wash away everything.
I ask,
"Why keep rebuilding when you know it will fail?"
You seemed frail by this unusual trail I made for you to travel.

You stood and asked me,
"Think, if I could make it stay, why walk away?"
You walked astray and drove away.

I looked at the pound of sand and decided to bend and build.
As I built,
I felt wonder,
So I pondered...
Life is like an unending bending sandcastle.
You build and build,
But the waves will wash it away.
We keep building though...

-Peter H.
