O Sea - Villanelle
O sea with sweet perfumes, palace of enchantment
Listening in conches groaning your memories
I will make necklaces using your shells fragments
Amazed by the laughter of a seagull distant
I welcome a starfish wandering graciously
O sea with sweet perfumes, palace of enchantment
I perceive the murmur of the life in movement
Savoring the warm breeze on my relaxed body
I will make necklaces using your shells fragments
My soul lulled by the sighs of the reflux instant
In awe of your perfect elements harmony
O sea with sweet perfumes, palace of enchantment
I taste the burning kiss of a sun so ardent
Caught in the vertigo of the immensity
I will make necklaces using your shells fragments
Unfinished symphony of infinite moments
In a bed of white lace, the waves come die slowly
O sea with sweet perfumes, palace of enchantment
I will make necklaces using your shells fragments
