CUATRO-SANDCASTLES

Sand quietly waits, for children to come and play. Mixing sand ~ water, building sandcastles with no gates.

As a kid whose time is spent a lot at the beach, I’ve the patience to build them, and ... the willpower to send them back to just being sand. That usually happens when the encroaching waves have their own way, to the point that I must raise the white flag. Way to go with your writing exposé at the branch. Blessings to you, Aloha.
