She sank beneath the tarnished waves in a crinkled crimson gown.
Bathing in the sea of light, she watched the sun go down.
Above the starlight hummed a tune
With their sweet companion, Lady Moon,
Who watched the maiden take a breath and dream
Of silver locks and paper wings.
As Lady Moon takes her evening course along the silver way
Shadows haunt below the maiden as sharks do swim away.
A lost whale’s song announces midnight’s bells
As the maiden floats below the swells.
The Lady and her companions merge at final quarter
To admire her crimson gown. For when Lady melts to allow the Lord
To rise and greet the day,
Dark waters cover maiden lost
While at the bank she lays.
