Stormy Sea

La Jument, off the coast of Brittany, photograph by Jean Guichard

I am a light keeper,  beacon of hope

facing adversity when it comes to call

sending messages, helping sailors cope

solitary life, lost souls visit my stone walls

I remember sunny days sailing together

until, storm clouds took you away from me

lost amidst sorrow, cursing turbulent weather

haunting songs drifting grey foaming seas

I am a light keeper, my heart is true

seeking redemption, floating ghosts roam

may your ship always sail under skies of blue

navigating wild waves leading safely home

Sea of Dreams for dVerse Feb. 26, 2013

Sea of Dreams!

You and I in a sea of dreams

night  cries in the wind

bed of clouds, wispy thin

starlight in our eyes

sing to me in harmony

under the solar flares

of my inner dreams

I now lay my soul bare

blanket me with melodies

soft as the velvet sky

your voice, rich and sweet

tucking me in to sleep

slowly reaching for you

touching your face

just one kiss from thy lips

a dream within a dream

eyelids heavy,  swimming

on the waves of emotions

we gently rock and sway

songs  of devotions

You and I in a sea of dreams

voices sigh in the wind

misty sprays of passion

love everlasting..
