Haunted house of sand...

Poem Artwork

Someone’s idea for Halloween,

A bit early but made the beach a neat scene,

Pumpkins alive though they don’t look mean,

The beach without tourists has remained clean…

 

The rain did melt it quite quickly,

Made it look quite altogether sickly,

But in its inception it looked rather stately,

Built of sand it was, still rather ornately…

 

The sculptor long gone,

The sculpted taken by the sea,

Before the next early morning dawn,

The sea showing off her brawn,

Still the sculptor in the beginning quite gutsy…

if it's as you say it is, then I'm sure its spooky residue will mysteriously re-appear at the witching hour!! I, too, have seen some amazing sand sculptures on our local beaches this summer... I could barely cope with bucket and spade castle when I was at it!! :)) xx

I never thought there would be a ghost of a chance to write a poem about such a scene but you captured the spirit perfectly.

There you go - start hauling sand back to your motorhome, start sculpting spooky Halloween stuff, and start charging admission to 'Jersey Devil's Halloween Haunt.'

Bet the sculpture took longer than the lovely poem that accompanies the photo of it, but they are both well crafted and worthy. Thanks Dick PS: This “beach house” might be in my price range.
