Lost at Sea

Sullenness rises to cool the descent of sacred peace soaked in the mind

Table top memories once languished in love, offered as treasure to find

Sandy shore sentiments caught in the sails on windship silhouette trips

Pearls of wisdom writing the words spoken through deep water lips

Rest in the graves holding the love, quiet dreams tested by time

Remembering the many now lost at sea, heart wrenching stories of mine

Ancient the serpent who swims from the wrecks

Plotting to rewrite the play

To Saturday songs and small children thongs - laughter to live for today

Calling from graves, the gentlemen’s way, the eyes are songs in the fold

Riches and dreams now buried in schemes - as cool water fortunes are sold

Sunken surrender from hearts old and tender each seeking eternity

All resting in love’s gentle recall for the many now lost at sea
