He looked at the sea
Like it was his best friend
The smile brought
As natural as the sea we saw
The sea crashed
Flowed up on the shore
His eyes filled with excitement
Escaping into the world
A moment ago he was in a world of sleep
The next; he was gazing at the sea
The sea air filled his young lungs
Giving him life like nothing else
That look he gave
As he looked at the sea
A young heart with the world in front
Filled me with hope for him, for all
He looked at the sea
With belief, excitement and awe
Everything I do and more
When we see the sea with our eyes
He looked at the sea
Like it was his best friend
I looked at him
As he is my little friend.
