At the lake I am invincible,
I am a knight covered in sand armor,
a dragon protecting my castle,
a wizard with magical stones in my pocket.
At the lake, I have shed my skin.
The pale yellow has been replaced with a new red.
A new shade, making me a martian in my own planet.
A martian by the name of Max.
All day I will play by the water,
watching my brother splash around with the other kids.
Splish, splash, the water will splash,
making everyone's hair darker, all except mine.
I can not play in the water,
mom says my cast can't get wet.
The water will taunt me,
like my brother when I don't want to play.
I like sitting in the sand,
even if my foot is a little itchy.
The sand is friendly,
always ready to play with me.
It whispers for me to play,
and I do not resist.
The sand is my friend,
and it is my duty to protect it.
