Empires of Sand
As children we built our empires of sand,
Every time we visited the beaches on the east coast,
Great castles of sand we did build,
But in our minds they were real castles.
We always imagined long lost kingdoms and tribes,
We imagined the days when Boadicea led the Iceni against the romans,
We imagined King Arthur and his round table in Camelot,
We imagined the great castles of the Renaissance and their courts.
We always wanted our little empires of sand to last forever,
Every day at the beach we would rebuild them,
Every time we made them bigger and better,
But alas time and tide wait for no man and our empires of sand were washed away.

Growing up! With the muse of life. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
We always wanted our little empires of sand to last forever, Every day at the beach we would rebuild them, Every time we made them bigger and better, But alas time and tide wait for no man and our empires of sand were washed away. Nice
