Said the sea to the shore “you don’t love me anymore All the good times seem like long forgotten chores While sunshine ***** my waters making rain I’ll visit other shores where I have lain Make trees and grass and flowers grow again Make harmony with clouds the sky I lend Yet your sandy walk I will forever tend Though you forget it’s time itself I bend”
Said the shore to the sea “you truly take me wrong We will touch throughout eternity in song Though moonlight is the mate for which I long We’ll touch your tides like members of your tong Make swirling currents beautiful and strong For time is but the mask where we belong”
Said the sea to the shore “take comfort in my lust For I turn even iron and steel to rust Like the oceans of night’s sky I will remain To touch your soul with yet a new refrain That we may yet be lovers once again”
