Sandcastles Poem by Gayathri Seetharam

Sandcastles
-Gayathri B. Seetharam
"We built sandcastles that washed away"
Sandcastles being swept away by the running feet of time
Sandcastles being washed away by the breaking waves of time
Sandcastles being replaced by new ones
That we built on the sunny days of life
What is time?
"Time - Swiss manufactured
French hors de oeuvres
Italian squandered …..
Time is a crook"
Time takes away your life
As a friend,
It is Canadian driven and
Drives your life.
