An old broken sailor having his final chat with the ocean. His final request... |
Mariner's Request Thou beloved ocean, my heart doth long for thee Cerulean swells on depth of endless sea Sweet salty mist as feathered wings on breast Currents swell and laugh from creamy foam'ed crests Enchanting be thou breath, brushed with zephyr's bliss Lips a whisper wait, seductive briny kiss Languid mantle green of emerald satin fair Tangled tendrils wave thou sultry maiden's hair My lady's subjects soar, crying out thou praise As loyal to thee here as night is to the days Luscious kingdon blue thou gentle ways to keep Fairest lady grant to sinners what they reap Justice done to those that have not reverence shown To the ships a tatter the howling gales blown Writhing fury white, such foamy wrath thou wield In wake of seething rage such sailors' fates are sealed Restored thy peaceful bliss my mistress ever wise Rainbows grace thou breast, so sensuous your eyes Endless waves do break such lusty passion roars Whispered temptress touch stroked o'er the velvet shores Crystal lady fair my heart yearns pure and true Too long we've been parted, thus return to you Sea hawk's wailing cry, give courage in thou breeze See me now dear mistress on weary bended knees Thou haunting calls I've heard, they cannot be denied So glorious this life when you've been by my side Thus one final request: Entwine my soul with thee I wish to be as you so set my spirit free. |
