Feel the surf caress the toes
Hear the gulls flying above
Watch the seals laze on the shore
Express the universal love
Stretch out, sand beneath the back
Wade into the crystal blue
Salute the dolphins as they pass
Let the air revive anew
Count the shells and smooth white stones
Watch the waves roll in and out
Stay to watch the sun go down
Hear the thunder’s distant shout
Watch the clouds turn slowly black
Feel the wind drag at the feet
Try to climb the hill in vain
Feel skin and ice-cold water meet
Be swept away, tossed here and there
Choke and flounder as it rains
Glimpse the land retreat away
Feel the shivers, chills and pains
See the lightening from below
Feel big fish tickle the legs
Sink down into the deep black mass
As though in jug, the ale’s last dregs
Give up, become one with the dark
Now food for passing claws and teeth
Enjoy nature’s vast paradise
Respect her raging hell beneath
