Into the Blue

The wind carries messages from afar As the schooner seeks its guiding star The waves grow angrier through the night As the crew struggles to keep the ship upright Morning finds a sea of calm No traces found of any storm A bottle floats, inside, a note Perhaps a warning to other boats The sea carries messages from afar Bobbing to the rhythm of a ghostly guitar The song it plays is far from new It's from "Davy Jones ", called, "into the blue" ~~~~~
