Sea and Sky by Luis Cuauhtémoc Berriozabal

Sea and sky

show me your

blue music,

bring me waves,

raindrops, and

pleasant views.

I will take

rhythm and

blues and a

lullaby

to put me

to sleep. I

will listen

to the wind

from the sea

and sky, a

cool breeze

to calm me.

Times are rough.

Be there for

me for a

little while

longer with

blue notes to

set the mood.

I will weep

with joyful

tears, sea and

sky, when I

contemplate

your presence.
