The Dance of the Sun and Shore
On my travels I have come upon
Many a marvel, of that
You can be assured.
Yet never a great marvel
Have I seen in my travels
Than the dance of the Sun and Shore.
In a far away place with
Faraway people
Many a fruit does grow.
They say there’s no cares
In that place faraway,
But the people, they carry a woe.
A plague has raged
In that place over sea
And the people are in dire need.
“The sun brings us healing,”
That’s what they say,
“And we receive good fortune from the sea.”
So the healthy they dance
By the shore all day
And tend to the sick at night
And they dream of the day
When ships will sail
Over the shore, bathed in light.
Sometimes I doubt
If their ship will ever come
But hopeful I’m sure they will stay.
To the beat of their drum
What a song they sung
As I packed up and left one day.
