Castles
She built a castle in the sand
Formed it in detail, it was grand
But when the waves rushed to the shore
Her castle crumbled, stood no more
So she built a castle on the rocks
That overlooked the seagull flocks
But the earthquake came, her castle fell
Carried out to sea in briny swells
Then she built a castle in the sky
Formed from clouds that went sailing by
But when the rain fell on the land
Her castle came tumbling to the sand
Her final castle she did revere
Built with all her heart and soul
She formed the columns from her tears
As each emotion played a role
And on each column she carved a dove
She built a castle made of love
