Castles on the Beach

A small poetic piece on the permanence of hope.

And its lasting impressions in the face of all tragedy.


Castles on the Beach

- Aarya Gandre

On a silent beach,

A storm battered.

Waves swept and away,

On a silent beach

Stood a castle that mattered.

On a silent beach,

Were sands unsettled.

Trees stronger yet swayed,

On a silent beach

The castle quiet, embattled.

On a silent beach,

A dream came to be.

A boy built a quite castle,

On a silent beach

Through storms it stood free.
