Between the salt water and the sea strand
I think of the moments we had shared
The glorious moon shines its silver light on the darkness of the water
The ocean roars as if a monster is within its dark recesses
And two silhouettes captured by the light and reflected onto God's sight
seem less than grains of sand in the universal vision
But I discount them not and think of them as cornerstones of my love for life...and of you

btw - "strand" is the Danish (& old nordic) word for : coast

Afrikaans must have borrowed the word from the Danes, because "strand" in Afrikaans means "beach" ... Dan

very interesting Dan - probably due to the fact that Afrikaans is heavily tinted by the Netherland (Holland) language, the stem of wich is nordic/germanic - allan

sorry about that second line...was lacking for inspiration and accidentally entered in... -minuet

you, my dear allan, are too sweet for words... -minuet
