And the changing sky to you,
And fishermen with a fishing net.

A little ship, and shouting birds,
And the color – navy-blue –
Which covered the quiet waves.

For the best phone call ever.
But there was no talk between you and me.
The sun seemed less bright that day,
The birds became silent and less free,
The sea whispered: “someone is away”...
