Three children playing at the beach
All they wanted was to live
They wanted to learn and to teach.

There’s Hana
She walks there at the shore
Her hair dances in the wind
The sound wind is all she hears
And the waves of the waters is all she sees.

There’s Kaitlyn
She radiates with joy
Luckily she still can’t stand the sight of a boy.
She runs and tumbles and flips and plays
She always loves a sunny day.

Then there’s Jean
He walks along the docks
He wonders what love is
As he kicks his rocks.

Three children that sat at the beach.
All they wished for,
Was to live, learn and teach.

And there’s Hana
Her arms searching for someone to hold
Her tongue dances behind her lips
As she waits for her first passionate kiss
Believing she’ll never find a lover.

And there’s Kaitlyn
She won’t admit her jealousy
Of her sister Hana
And how she’s so pretty.
She looks up to her elder sister,
If she ever disappeared she’d know she would miss her.

And there’s Jean,
He ponders his life as he flicks the rocks
Watching them hop across the calm waters.
He wishes for the love of his parents
Which he never receives.

The three children on the beach,
They wanted to live, to learn and to teach
And they did.

They lived their lives believing they were alone
But they learned they are one
One with everyone.

They are one and they can understand it.
Open your mind
And you can understand it.
Please let me know
When you also understand it.
