I Tried To Bury You

In the sand I bury you.

To the ankles, it sort of tickles you.

But the idea sort of grew.

And I knew what I had to do.

From the ankles, sand in shoes.

I went higher, above the socks,

It's getting hard to move.

Then in sight, I saw mom and dad.

The asked, what I was doing?

I was playing archaeologist.

I needed someone to unburied.

We laughed and laughed.

Smarts saves the day.
