" The sea of life"

 The sea of life # √

The wind picked up and flew upon the sail

Soul brightened as the east began to pale

The sound of billows leapt across the sky

We tacked the ship to give to life a try

The wind broke free, the tempest roared and flailed

That roaring sound of heart that nearly failed

The waves that crashed so high as passions mount

Across the deck, it flings like wondrous fount

So smoothly moved along the wave's sharp crest

That, now, the sea has lastly come to rest

And, now, the languor soothes the savage sea

Horizons lost, no longer waves to be

As lost in time, there is no land in sight

And, yet, the sun, the breeze, feel, oh, so right

It's time, again, to run along the rail

Aweigh the anchor, raise so high the sail

For lands unknown lie far unto the fore

Let's ride the winds, again, to farthest shore
