My Sandcastle

From the tiny whispers 
of  the air 
The enchanted melody 
of  the sea 
The shimmering of  the 
golden sand
Due  to  the ever radiant 
sun
An orchestra is formed
Inspiration comes forth...
Which are just colorful 
thought
And  my very desire
To rapture   a sand castle 
of  my own.....


Tickling  to  my feet
Engulfs  my fragile 
hands 
The sands of  the beach
So soft and gentle
Like  the rolling waves
On  a summer day...
With it i will build this 
fantasia
Which lays low within 
me 

Tools i have not
Just  a just  a beautiful 
mischief
I have not much precious 
stones
Just this illuminating 
sand
Which shines so bright
With this i pray  to 
achieve 
The worlds' greatest 
masterpiece
My sand-castle
Hope these winds don't 
blow it way......

Prince Ekpemandu
For  the "sandcastle by  
the seashore"
