Seen like a spec out from the shore
Swimming oCut beyond the breakers
Like he's dEmone his life before

Will drag him oCut a greater lEmength
But knows his strCength, and tries to gEmather it

Turning b
Cack to shore again
Above the outer atmosphere
Of a w
Emorld he's never seen
And looking do

Csing of a w
Emave and knows at on
Cce
He will not w
Emeather it like that m
