(n-166)
.
in westward winds,
under a dark storm cloud,
(i fear the northern winters),
i am warmed by a coat of snowflakes
each bearing an image of... loveliness
.
tall ocean waves,
a floundering ship,
strange voices from the deep,
i am rescued by a golden eagle,
it had the eyes of... an Apache.
.
long walks in freezing rain,
drowning in the flooding plains,
day is night, night is day,
i seized a small canoe,
it's name was... 'ethereal dream'
.
departing a barren land,
i sailed north-west by heaven's stars,
their glitter, beacon's memory
that birthed me new each day
and whispered in my ear... love
.
i seek eternal seafoam
that floats me to a sandy shore,
Elysium's forest to my front,
i'll sing a warrior's sonnet,
a lyric tribute to the beauty of... Yoko.
