Placed With Poise

~

By Rowan Finley Published 2 years ago • 1 min read

Look where I dared to drive,

this sand is very much alive,

as it has been packing me punches,

while above me people ate their pretty picnic lunches.

For so long, sand hid me down deep,

but not to fear, the hand that found me, wasn’t a creep.

Placed with poise upon this smart bottle,

by the neck, my life, I feel fresh control of the throttle!

Ready to drive on highways, rumbling vigor, sand-free,

but then a snotty-nosed toddler threw me right into the sea!
