Recipe for a sandcastle
Take one sunny day,
a wide empty shore
and lots of sparkling waves.
Add one red spade,
a ton of golden sand
and a bucketful of sea-water.
Mix well, build high,
decorate with pearly shells
and top with a fluttering flag.
Bake under a yellow sun
where the tide tickles your toes
and you have made
a sandcastle!
