The bright sunlight faded

Falling behind the wall of blue;

Bursting into a canvas shaded

With many colors true.

Dolphins appeared as silhouettes

Leaping joyfully into the air,

Landing with a silent splash.

How I wish I could be there!

The water now was rippling

Tranquil as could be;

Waves lapped at shore, trickling

As far as I could see.
