A Glimpse Of Dolphins

By Paul Mc Cann

 

 

Can you see the dolphins?
Can you hear me scream?
Just beyond the breakers on a silver sun skimmed gleam  . 
Slicing through the surface on the oceans edge,
I whistle to the evening before night makes it's pledge .
Turn the tide around once more so I can see the dolphins that are leaving.
return again to me .
Fins above the water,
kids upon the shore , 
the dolphins now have gone ,
I can't see them anymore
