A Sand Witch for a Sandwich

I walked the beach on a sunny day

       And soon found a shell with which to play.

I made a castle, I made a moat,

       I poured in water to sail my boat.

I made a farm and a racetrack, too,

      And then a figure that sort of grew

Taller and taller as I piled more sand.

     Then I shaped a face with one wet hand.

Oh, what a face—with an ugly beak

      And a tall, tall hat that came to a peak!

I looked with pride at my ugly witch,

     While all around I dug a ditch.

To keep her safe from the incoming tide,

     I dug it deep on every side.

The waves rolled in and then slid back.

     I waited for their we attack.

One little wave crept up the beach,

     But my sand witch it could not reach.

One, two, three waves filled the ditch.

     Another wave took a nip at the witch.

A whitecap pushed with all his might

     And ate that witch in one big bite!

I laughed as the water swished round my feet,

     For sandwiches are made to eat!
