What Will Our Children Ever Know?

Too much too many
More more more
Are we ever satisfied?
Every empty space now filled
With condos, hotels, restaurants
Can our eyes and ears have no rest?
Small town feels now like big city
Sand and ocean are inconsequential
More commerce, more shopping, more greed
The glory of God
Replaced by the ‘bling’ of man
The awesomeness cheapened
Shopping bags filled with merchandize
Replace the pockets filled with shells
Manufacturing replaces memories
What will our children ever know
Of lovely beach days
Simply filled with waves wanting to play?
What will our children ever know
Of lovely beach days

Simply digging holes and building castles in the sand?
