Build me a Sandcastle contest..

Waves wash the canvas clean
Allow for building the dream
Some are elegant
Others are tall
Waves remove them all

He
built a
sandcastle
too far up the
beach-
the
empty
moat missing
the incoming
tide-
vain
efforts
dissolve in
the first offshore
breeze.

Waves lapping the shore
My sandcastle floating away

a hot burning sun
endless waves washing ashore...
gulls stealing french fries
a refreshing breeze
scores of sandcastle ruins...
a day at the beach

BEACH
water
sandy shore
picking up seashells
making big sand castles
playing in the blue water
"lasting beach dreams of childhood days"

Build me a sandcastle of drifting dream,
just to scatter every particle in the wind...
Lay me under the burden of brokenness,
until the shore gives in to a new dream.

THE FALL OF THE EMPIRE
The empire of the empyrean
Is swallowing up the remains of our day
While we rebuild our empty sandcastle walls
And outrun the swiftest skylark
In a plunge to the gates already closing out
The dawdling dwindling light.

Here,
There's no one else but me
to build a sandcastle.
I'm bewildered
by the vastness of imaginary sands
and oceans in a country only existing
within the boundaries of my mind
I lay my hands bare at this island.

A MINATURE WORLD
rockpools left by tide
microcosm of sea life
salt creatures waiting.
INCOMING TIDE
sandcastle at risk
horror on children's faces
nothing to be done.
SHADOWS
dark shadow rippled
over torpid winter sea
no summer echoes

You have never come into my dreams.
And I have no place to touch down.
I don`t drink spirits, not in the least.
I go mad and speak in a round.
I am a sad bird which has no wings.
Did you lose our love in a hustle?
You will never come into my dreams.
You are like a wind or a sandcastle.

Rhyme
No need to hurry;
No need to hustle;
The waves do carry
Our each sandcastle.
Life contains a measured beat;
We need to accept all;
Freedom has a deep seat,
As we're given the call.
All things seem pointless;
What is the truth then?
Of all things regardless,
We falsely become insane.

If I died right now who would know
Lingering slowly
Slowly I would fade
Blackness consumes my conscious
Sad everyday
Lonely feels cold
Unreasonably cold and dark
To feel another breath would create a story
If you could be mine
I would build a sandcastle with you
And live forever in it

One more time
Hand in hand we watch
sleepy waves yawning
neath amethyst skies
softly illumined by
lemonade moonbeams
in rhythmic motions
midst hypnotic sighs
on a sandcastle shoreline
of reflections floating
silently on the tide
as we fall in love
one more time
Good night Soupers

Dream sand castle tall
Waves attack for Conquest
Castle lost not dreams

Dark side of Oakleys.
The black, short linen dress,
floats and careses her thighs,
a moition so sweet!
In the eveloping heat.
Fine african beads,
dance loose on dark skin,
caress the breasts above
from a heart beat within.
She sways, and he staggers
In a moment he stands
amongst all the sand that has
fallen, and crumbled off
the sandcastle Man.

You ran roughshod over my sandcastle
Without a flicker of commotion
diverting the starboard
and finding ourselves
at a yawning beach
Did you see yourself
as a seashell
Did you cast an enchanted look
There's always a sea song
for a remedy overdue
Shake off the foam
and clear your head
Did you see yourself as a crab
yet noted the World didn't care enough

sandcastle
grains of quartz sculpture
surrender
a ghost of past strength
sand storm
soft sands harmless
until rallied by whipping winds
rising in power

as summer befalls a moonless night
if only to the depths of my heart
i hold my breath and draw you near
you are as silent as the sky is still
why must i read between the lines
and sleep not be my guest tonight
again and again the tide to and fro
does my heart beat in vain
for a tomorrow that may never come
