Sandpiper's life

I just wanted some filing, fresh, delicious food

My mother made me go and catch

I found a clam but it escaped

I found the sea and me in a match

 

Oh no! The water came flooding over me

The freezing cold, blue, salty sea wave

Oh how terrified I was, when it flooded

I quickly sprinted back to my sand cave

 

I just want my mum to feed me some filling food

I speed quickly down again to find

But as I was down there I had found

I had chased it but I was behind

 

It was a family of three small crabs

It just looked like they didn't care

Without a warning, it was too late

It was my absolute worst nightmare

 

They quickly dug down into the yellow sand

And so I persued down with them

I opened my eyes and I could see all

And I was simply not condemned
