032010d Canoe On Their Back Poem by Manonton Dalan

frothing waves chasing tiny birds
feasting on stranded little shrimps
jumping on the sand like locust
hermit crab hurried to her hole
moving leaving a unique scroll
never i am tired looking at all

my shadow coming close to sea
i could feel heat, so i look and see
sails flirting with ocean breeze
surfers so focus riding beautiful crest
my mind admiring what nature is
they make me happy and i cherish

a rowing team practicing nearby
with rhythmic counts heard to mile
synchronize strokes make them fast
slicing the surface with great skill
reach the shore everybody get out
carried their canoe on their back
