A Child Collects Some Sand

A child collects some sand with hand And so he calls it "motherland". To some sand, castles are built high Flowers are grown for dewy morn Flags are furled in cloudy sky But by fort's flag the flower's forlorn. Children gather some sand with hands And so they call it "motherlands".
