small child,
sit on this stretch of beach -
it is made for you,
it is yours.
why not take your seat -
i can see that you are getting
tired.
rest a while and
watch the waves glitter for you.
hear the sea roar;
hear the birds' harsh cry.
look out, feel the wind
against your face,
be refreshed so that you can
complete your journey.
for now, rest a while;
enjoy the creation,
while the sun slips down
to it's watery bed,
and the moon rises.
