Best Friends on the Beach

Tommy the Turtle, with scales so bright, Spied Sandy the Crab, a welcome sight! On a sandy beach, where sunbeams gleam, And gentle waves whispered a watery dream.

"Hello, dear Sandy!" Tommy did call, "Let's build a castle, grand and tall!" Sandy scuttled closer, with a clickety-clack, "A castle of sand? I'm right on track!"

With tiny claws and flippers so strong, They gathered the sand, where they both belong. Tommy dug moats, deep and wide, While Sandy smoothed walls, with the turning tide.

Seashells for towers, seaweed for flags, Their castle grew, without any snags! They laughed and they worked, a happy pair, Building a friendship beyond compare.

The sun dipped low, painting the sky, Their sandcastle stood, oh so high! A testament true, to teamwork and glee, A friendship so strong, for all to see!
