Playing By the Beach

Some children Playing by the beach Running here and there Giving the screech Of joy and pleasure Some elderly persons Resting on the cool sand Are smiling to see them play As if try to find out Their own childhood Some others are dosing With half closed eyes As if enjoying Both sleep and play At the same time The waves are calm The children Make cups of their palm Fill salty water And try to erect Their dream palace Their innocent genius Does not know That all the castles on the beach Are highly prone to The wave of a high tide And wash them away Like the palace of The bodies of man Once trapped in the high tide Of approaching time Are washed away And their souls are merged In the eternal soul Forever like the sand On the beach Again gets ready For the new palaces And the wheel of time Goes on like this
