Take the precious pen
and tuck it safely away
the words are not here
the ink will not speak today
○
Straighten the stark parchment
and push it to one side
the words will not appear
they remain hidden somewhere inside
○
Push my dutiful desk
far away from the window
the words do not need a place
when there are none to show
○
Store away my chair
make use of it elsewhere
the words have disappeared
and I have none left to share
○
Take me from this room
a quiet place no longer in need
the words are now so still
perhaps it is I they'll no longer feed

~

O’er the seas this angel wishes
Windswept dreams and blowing kisses
Breakfast tides awake the shore
Ever loving, ever pure
~
Oceans green and aqua blues
Tinted morning shimmered hues
A wisp O’ wind doth touch her hair
Of tapered breezes for to share
~
Upon her vessel pearly white
Is born the beauty of her sight
So calm at peace and rest allure
Wonders cast from sculpted shore
~
Adrift to catch a sunny day
Amongst the waters she doth play
O’ eyes of brown and skin divine
To call this perfect angel mine
~
I stand the beach in searching of
That soon my heart shall find her love
As rippled waters bide their time
Of deep expanse O’ natures wine
~
To sail these waters castaway
I fall upon my knees and pray
This angel sweet atop the sea
Shall find her way to only me
~
Find this day as it does smile
For lone she waits in precious style
Of shelled delight and smooth of wake
To bring within my heart to take
~
The song of coastal oceans main
I long to wet her kiss again
And o’er this dream it can bestow
To sail within her wings once more
