These little counting poems are just delightful!!!! So fresh and original and so many realistic "events" that make the grains disappear one by one.How do you come up with such original ideas every day? I am amazed and privileged to read your works.

Charlotte, thank you so much, my friend :-) I appreciate your generous sixth star. I pretty much bully myself into coming up with ideas - rather than waiting for inspiration to knock on my door, I tell myself I'd better come up with something. LOL :-) Brooke

Sometimes I try to force myself to come up with something or I go by the season or current events, But I can't do it on a daily basis.It is amazing that you can do high quality stuff consistently!!!
Comment from Scarlette DeLuca
So cute in a good way! The idea of each grain of sand finding it's own destiny was inspired. Plus kids will love the rhyming and the imagery of sand as having lives and thoughts. Very well done all several levels.

Repetition is the key for children to learn and reading several poems on counting will do just that.
solid abcb rhymes and proximate rhyme alone /home
smooth flow of words from one line to another
Sawyer seems to having fun on the beach

Comment from royowen
I think there's on thing about being a grain of sand, you're never alone, maybe a stranger to those who you meet when you're swept away! Great little Ten poem, they're always so restful and easy! Nice flow, which is your hallmark Brooke, simple but clever language, the abcb rhyming's great, the meter nice and even, well done, blessings, Roy.

Brooke, This is such a well written and fun read. You did an excellent job. It makes me want to go to the beach. Of course it's a long way to the ocean from here. Great pix along with this as well. Judy

I'll never look at sand the same way again!
You have such an imagination and I love your
story of what happens to the ten grains of sand.
Charming visuals as each one goes missing.
Great counting rhyme. Nancy
