ON THE SANDS OF CAVELOSSIM BEACH

 ON THE SANDS OF CAVELOSSIM BEACH 

 

And, here we are 

And now that we are here

Let’s sit for a while

Rest our limbs and mind

And later 

We’ll see what we can do here

There’s lots we can do

But

Let’s sit for a while

Or

Let’s sit for a bit longer 

It’s been a long time

Since

We sat together 

 

We have journeyed on 

Land water and air 

We have seen all the forts

Gardens temples churches 

Palaces museums and statues

We have hurried from one 

To another in a mad rush

Heads hazy 

Eyes ablur 

 

We are here now

Let’s sit for a while

Rest our limbs and mind

Let’s sit for a while longer 

Wait for the sun to set

The sky to turn dark-blue

The waves to sparkle 

The ship-lights to come alive
