Sandbox

Sun shining on a Saturday morning
a bright red and blue sandbox descends
from the roof of the truck into the yard
while tiny people dance and clap with glee

Wheelbarrows deliver gritty bits of childhood heaven
Trucks and toys and buckets and shovels emerge
Handprints followed by tunnels followed by caves
Damp sand cupcakes with dry sand frosting squashed
by a small blond figure swimming laps around the perimeter.
