THE SEA AND I



First of all, I must say that I love the sea so much
in the past, I dared to repeat words from the poet Areias,
"Sea, my ground"

RETURN
If the sea deigns so much
to lose a little water
to wash my feet...
I reciprocate, filling it
back with my tears...!

I know the sea's salt,
so many shipwrecked ships...
I know the sea's distance
so many distant loves...

Water that gushes from me
only increases a sea between us
a lonely man without his love!

I know that the sea, my confidant friend,
will feel my death...
I, little innocent river!

Hello Alakas, I think in your paste you were working on a ship of some kind. I think it was there you discovered you love the sea. Your friend, /Darlene/
