Waves

copy right – the reclining gentleman
“That’s the place where my friend would sit and gaze at the
waves for hours. He would never get tired of looking at the waves,” grandfather
said to his grandson.
“Did he also look at the boats and the birds and the clouds,”
grandson asked innocently.
“Yes, but he was fascinated by the waves.”
“I like the birds; they are so alive and playful.”
“My friend would say, ‘Waves are also alive and playful, just
like the birds’”.
“I never met your friend? Why?” asked the grandson.
“He left before you came,” said the grandfather looking
soulfully at the waves.
