Fifty years
of cruel
of cruel
sun
rain
like tears
rain
like tears
failed
to bleach
to bleach
the obstinate stain
on that tousled shore
on that tousled shore
A beach
of coral sand
beyond
of coral sand
beyond
the distant
rumbling breakers
reach for pick up
cool pale shell
spirals
into
secret
into
secret
depths
hold it
to your ear
to your ear
Listen
to the resonant
song
welling up
from midnight
song
welling up
from midnight
long centuries
abound
abound
with swelling
summer waves
summer waves
the future
is the sound of
children's laughter
is the sound of
children's laughter
