Beneath the mist, a shadow glides,
The water shivers, whispers low.
A long neck rises, then it hides,
Where fishermen and legends go.
The water shivers, whispers low,
Reflections twist in early light.
Where fishermen and legends go,
The monster slips beyond the sight.
Reflections twist in early light,
A ripple fades, then breaks again.
The monster slips beyond the sight,
A secret held in wind and rain.
A ripple fades, then breaks again,
A long neck rises, then it hides.
A secret held in wind and rain,
Beneath the mist, a shadow glides.
