The beach that swallowed everything

The beach that swallowed everything

Went down to the sand 

Looked but there was nothing around 

Seemed like something profound 

Kept wandering around 

Nothing could be found 

Then I thought I heard a strange sound 

Went down closer to edge 

Looked over the hedge 

Out to sea I couldn't see

Appearing on the beach but seemed out of reach 

Maybe this event had something to teach

Or it was some strange breach

I didn't see any people 

Except for a shadow that I followed 

It seemed like something hollow

Then everything disappeared and it was like a place of sorrow 

I wonder if the same thing would happen again tomorrow 

Certainly seemed like a strange thing

Such was the beach that swallowed everything
