Sleeping Bear Dunes

It glows, the dunes'
soft sand sparkles like
little crystals in the late
summer's sun as people stand
on it. The sand comforts them
as it pulls them down to its
den.
 
They grab the bear's ear
to try and pull out. Once they
are done, they run down,
kicking sand up from their feet.
 
If you stand at just the
right angle, your eyes
catch the terrific sight
of a sleeping bear.
