Find Ourselves

Maybe today especially we need to find ourselves.


maggy and milly and molly and may



maggy and milly and molly and may


went down to the beach(to play one day)




and maggie discovered a shell that sang


so sweetly she couldn't remember her troubles,and



milly befriended a stranded star


whose rays five languid fingers were;



and molly was chased by a horrible thing


which raced sideways while blowing bubbles:and

 


may came home with a smooth round stone


as small as a world and as large as alone.



For whatever we lose(like a you or a me)


its always ourselves we find in the sea
