#*'Twas a time I deemed thee love;   the echoes lacked contraire Sea moon shadows dance across   this isle of despair Entwined flesh eyes doth ne'er perceive,   outside the mortal's scope No sole charter giveth passage   through salty waves unknown 'Tis what I think to see thee there   on pedestals of gold Forevermore you place thyself   on stalwart shores alone Unfurl thy sails for distant lands;   the lighthouse shines once more Praying to gods that long lost ship   will find its way to port.*#

Ode to Love Lost at Sea
#*'Twas a time I deemed thee love;   the echoes lacked contraire Sea moon shadows dance across   this isle of despair Entwined flesh eyes doth ne'er perceive,   outside the mortal's scope No sole charter giveth passage   through salty waves unknown 'Tis what I think to see thee there   on pedestals of gold Forevermore you place thyself   on stalwart shores alone Unfurl thy sails for distant lands;   the lighthouse shines once more Praying to gods that long lost ship   will find its way to port.*#
