A tall ship at sea
Tossed about on the ocean
Weathering the storm

Poetry and Occasional Randomness
This is another one of mine that kind of got lost in the shuffle earlier this month. I liked the sound of it so I thought I would give it another shot at stardom this Christmas season.

Boat on the ocean
Silver bells tied to the mast
Jingling with the waves
+
Tied and docked sea plane
Resting on the calm water
Dressed in Christmas cheer
Boats in the harbor
Decorated with warm lights
Filled with Christmas cheer
+
Safe in the harbor
Sailor celebrates Christmas
With the ones he loves

Red skies start the day
Somewhere a sailor worries,
as the sails billow

A couple of my favorite songs involving the water and the world around it. Yes, I’m a metal head, but I do enjoy mellow music as well. John Denver goes all the way back to my childhood – listening to it with my dad. R.I.P. John Denver, gone, but not forgotten.
