Last Ocean

.
Journeying with hope. 





Last Ocean     -     26 Apr 20 

A ship unnamed 
On an uncharted journey 
Sailing the last ocean 
With hope 
Surrounded by stars 




No maps can show the way.

Unknown Coast

.
The early days of exploration when "here be Dragons" still filled the maps. 




Unknown Coast      -     12 Apr 20 

Rocks upon the shore 
Waves do not shake them 
Here the ship waits 
For the explorers 
To return from the 
Unknown 
To the coast 
To tell of what 
Lies within 




Dragons are, of course, still present.

Seeing Drifting Dreams


Dreaming reveals new worlds.





Seeing Drifting Dreams  -  17 Apr 17

Watching sails slip past
Each ship carries a memory
Another place
Another time
Days tell of desires
Fulfilled
And some still waiting
Dreams drift apart
To explore the other worlds
But always dreaming
Seeing possibilities
Always watching







Watching how they develop.

I Wonder


A Love song, written in a folk ballad style, with a touch of melancholy.





I Wonder  -  28 Oct 13

A tall ship stands
In the western harbour
And I wonder
Who she is waiting for

A soft wind
Gathers the scent of spice
From the sea
To carry it across the land

I remember those mellow days
Filled with warm sunshine
And I wonder
Who is waiting there now

A sweet voice
Gathers my memories
From wherever they lie
To carry them back to me

A gentle touch of a soft hand
Wakes the Love within me
And I wonder
Shall I see her again?





This was born just after the one posted yesterday, it came as something of a surprise to me when it emerged.
