Lying amongst the dunes Gazing at the night sky The darken palm of glittering eyes Etch in patterns from the moonlight Envision a bay lined with tall ships Heading out on smooth seas They disappear swallowed by earths lips May their journey be fruitful full of peace A light streaks across the sky Seems to rearrange the stars Yet just an illusion seen from afar The heart drops in puddles stain the sand Eyes closed memories release Details are vivid when they began But the truth of aging has skip s beat The record of life still spins grooves wear out The needle needs replacing every once and awhile And when the grooves are finally muddle And the needle thrashes about Let us join the etch patterns on the darken Palm And be a new set of glittering eyes From the moonlight
