The Night and The Sea

Our past affects our present,
People treated poorly.
But here I stand,
On the beach’s shore.  

It’s the way of the sea,  
Washes the memories back.
Not many notice, some forget.    
The way of our past, our track.

The night, the sea
The magical feeling lingering in the frosted air.
Kindness, harmony, everything is peaceful.    
Be gone, sadness and despair.    

The stars shimmering, light shining on water.  
Our ancestors, connecting again.
To some, a scene
To others, a prayer that says amen.

The light dazzles me.
Close my eyes, I know what I see.
I see my ancestors,    
Maybe they see me.
