A beautiful seascape

A beautiful seascape will let You forget everything for a while. From the bustle of town you will get Away, diving into sand's dead-end aisle. Coming up to the azure-smooth swell, With your skin you'll get stuck to the sand. And a grace from within will dispel All the sorrow and gloom close at hand. And the ocean will start to rejoice When it sees my spirit ashore. With love it will fill up my heart's pocket So that it would be dry no more. So it beats evenly, keeping time, And gives all the feelings free rein. And this spontaneous interval Will blow the soul's scandal away again. The elements then will see The most beautiful wonder of all. The one who was, is and will always be — The beautiful child of the skies. The obedient and tender son Of the One who is Love itself. Who believes he is not alone As long as his blood keeps on pulsing. Then the water will wash his tired feet Like a father who's watching all day, Always, everywhere, making sure That his boy keeps clean on his way.
