I sat on the beach, all alone.
I sat there and cried, 'til the morning sun shown.
Then they came, like a gift from the sea.
I knew somehow, that they came to comfort me.
They chittered and chirped and danced and played.
They made me smile throughout the day.
I came to understand the language they spoke.
It was full of happiness and freedom and hope.
Their dances were more graceful than the most talented ballerina...
They told me their names were Dolfin and Delphina.
They picked me up, when I was down...
They helped me to swim so that I wouldn't drown.
Now I know the magic they share...
I feel their love and endless care.
Then it was time for them to leave me...
But I know that tomorrow they will come to see me.
They have shown me that I have a dolphin inside...
I know now that I can not hide.
I long to be with them, to be free...
Someday I will, I have a dolphin in me.
Today the Dolphins Came to Play
by Wayne Marshall
Today the dolphins came to play
I watched them jump for joy
It seemed just then, they were wise old men
and I, a foolish boy
Atop the mighty waves they danced
to the rhythms of the moon
in harmony with the song of the sea
they played in perfect tune
Behind me fast cars rushed on by
towards some other time and place
What wonders do we never see
that stare us daily in the face?
Today the dolphins came to play
I never felt so small
and yet so grand, bare feet in the sand
a vital part of the all
