the dolphins came
 

I went down by the sea today, hoping to rest my cares away.
My day had been long and tiring, so I sat there just admiring
this tranquil place and scenery, and pondered bout it's mystery.
As I watched the waves lick the sand, my mind moved to another land
where dolphins play with not a fear of having someone like me near,
to throw a net or cast a line to take them from a world so fine.
I visioned them in shadows deep as peaceful thoughts lulled me to sleep.
How long I napped I cannot say, dreaming of dolphins at their play.
They weaved happy thoughts thru my mind, and left the bad day far behind.
Oh how I wished I could join them to escape a world of mayhem.
I envied them their way of life, then as if to relieve my strife and teach me
how to play the game, the dolphins came! The dolphins came!
