The precocious summer orbs
Chucking the ball, the kids
Skiing in the grassy cooler ice
Small dramas enacted & reenacted
Adults are made, not born
Babies are born, not made
Babies are both made and born
And maiden-born,
and maiden-borne.

Small shell dramas
Scratching across the sands of silent seas
Small shell dilemmas
Two equally attractive empties
Tiny shell battles
Fighting tooth and claw
The winner eats dinner
Dinner's on the loser
Dinner is the loser
