Blue sky and vibrant sun
The scene for
Towering castles in the sand.
Hours from start ‘til done
Quite a chore
But ever seen a site so grand?

Competition so tough
On the beach
A child’s play turned serious.
The prestige is enough
Within reach
Winning makes me delirious.

A third annual win
For this old
Professional sand castle king
I’ll return once again
Go for gold
With next year’s sandy offering.
