- THE SEA
- By Natividad Marquez
- Why does the sea laugh, Mother,
- As it glints beneath the sun?
- It is thinking of the joys, my child,
- That it wishes every one.
- Why does the sea sob so, Mother,
- As it breaks on the rocky shore?
- It recalls the sorrows of the world.
- And weeps forevermore.
- Why is the sea so peaceful, Mother,
- As if it were fast asleep?
- It would give our tired hearts, dearest child,
- The comfort of the deep.
