The birds along the waterfront all sing
Their songs can't be compared to anything
I listen well as I go on my way
How I wish I could simply sit and stay
The sun is bright, the sea is calm, i live
The day is short, the night is cold, i giveMy soul to it, the restful peace, the sea
That harsh mistress, that will not give to me
Next day, I take, a simple boat upstream
The wash from waves, swirls slow, i watch it gleam
The forest reaches high above my boat
It looks on me as if to laugh and gloat
I take its hint, and turn my boat sadly
But really i return to sea gladly
good job overall
