I like the quiet mornings
When the waves have washed the footprints from the shore
When even the gulls are just beginning to stir
And the heat of the day has not yet aroused the flies to search
the seaweed for breakfast,
When the beach still has the sand of sleep in its eyes
And the driftwood looks like tired swimmers resting on the shore
When the waves laugh at the rocks
And playfully wash the night from their eyes.
