Summer Scenes

Sand in the Sandwiches, 
Sand in the Tea,
Flat, wet sand
Running Down to the sea.

Pools full of seaweed,
Shells and stones,
Damp bathing suits
And Ice Cream Cones.

Waves pouring in
 To a sand-castle moat,
Mend the defenses!
Now we're afloat!

Water's for splashing,
Sand is for play.
A day by the sea
Is the best kind of day.
