Emeraud sea,<\/p>\n
happy faces everywhere,<\/p>\n
the heat is forgotten<\/p>\n
and the sea is the protagonist.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Blessed soft sand,<\/p>\n
surfers, swimmers and non-swimmers<\/p>\n
having the same goal-enjoying themselves;<\/p>\n
and umbrellas everywhere.<\/p>\n

And I wonder-are we sinners<\/p>\n
because of our too many wishes and needs<\/p>\n
or only swimmers in life\u2019s waters?<\/p>\n
I tend to think that we are mere swimmers.<\/p>\n

You are free to contradict me.<\/p>\n
So, who is pro and who is against?<\/p>\n
Happily, we still have freedom of choice and of speech.<\/p>\n
