Heron Island

 

Whisper to me, gentle wind

As you kiss the sunlit waves

Rippling, twisting

Rolling, dancing

Over the little island

 

Call to me, little bird

As you glide just like a kite

Floating, turning

Calling, diving

Over the little island

 

Crash about me, rolling waves

As you swirl in and out

Bubbling, streaming

Crashing, rolling

Around the little island

 

Dance about me, little fish

As you wind through coral

Swimming, gliding

Dancing, playing

Around the little island

 

Beckon to me, little girl

As you sit on the sand

Living, breathing

Loving, growing

On the little island

 

Silence surrounds the little rock

Alone in a sea that buckles and swirls

Tide comes in and tide goes out

Birds come and go, fish swim about

Rock stays still, a perfect stone

Proud and tall – but all alone.
