What I Like Best

i like to paddle in the sea
to dig the scorching sand
i like to look for little shells
and listen to the band

i like to walk along the shore
and watch the seagull fly
i like the wind that blows my kite
and takes it to the sky

but i feel best when i’m in bed
quiet and still i keep
i like to listen to the waves
that swing me into sleep
