Talking Waves

TALKING WAVES. The sound the waves make on the shore Seem like they’re trying to say, “I’d never seen this rocky beach Until I did today.” “Before that I was out at sea, Miles and miles away, Racing with the ocean, To talk to you today.” “I’ve seen the cliffs at Dover, And the road to Mandalay. I even passed Australia To get to you today.” “I’ve seen the gentle humpbacked whale And a giant manta ray, I even saw a penguin In a cold Antarctic Bay.” “But now we’ve had our little chat I really must not stay, I’ve got to talk to someone else A thousand miles away.”
