Sand

There's sand in my shoes

And it reminds me of childhood

Of building sandcastles by the beach

And the school sandbox covered in dirt

It reminds me hot days that guaranteed a sunburn

And orange popsicles that stained my tongue

And how we thought it was the funniest thing

It reminds me of when we were young

It all links back to you

The happy smiling friend I had

The person I have grown to love

All because of the sand in my shoes
