a dolphin sings

S.C.Jones

A separate path, a shared past...your sea.
There began my reason, my passion then.
My path - the sunshine; yours - tranquillity.
Where does one end, and the other begin?

I have war'd and died a thousand times more.
You of oceans live in blessed harmony.
Here I've conquered all plains, even to soar,
While you give cetaceans their melody.

Swim your separate way mid seas sublime,
While I go searching life's final decent.
Though now apart we were one, for all time.
Would we speak sharing this, I'd be content.

From here within me a lone dolphin rose,
Singing love songs only true wisdom knows.
