Did See a Shoe

Did See a Someone's Shoe Deep in Atlantic did see someone's shoe Which was when our curiosity grew and grew As to owner of shoe at one time had been Who none of us here will ever see again. Story they told about Titanic was all true Can you imagine things they went through Worrying and thinking about their doom While some went searching from room to room. To abandon Titanic fearless few had refused As an example of bravery each one was used To both bolster, settle down and stabilize Those full of fear that exhibited many cries. Passengers, ship staff and parents died Relatives tears go on and on and are not dried After children's names on death list were found And friends that they wish were still around. Two sections of Titanic hulk, they still exist And to find what is left, people still persist To continue searching was hard to refrain From trying to find what still does remain. James Thomas Horn, Retired Veteran and Poet I wonder if thoughts about the Titanic will ever disappear just like the big ship did.
