Never a Day Goes By

Never a day goes by when she walks the shore alone Grief stricken she has become now his spirits having flown Seafaring was in his blood, ancestral like his past For the seas take no prisoners, life very seldom lasts Never a day goes by when she walks the shore alone Her heart forever tormented for his seed shall never be sown She weeps constantly for the love that grew with her soul To grow old in their marriage, having children their only goal Never a day goes by when she walks the shore alone Loyalty in her remains as the past decades have always shown The stone that now lays in remembrance, stands battered and worn For the seas display their wrath, leaving the future of some unborn http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/loss-6.php

So sad, and written just as those from the ages long ago, by the classic poets. Nice one for another page in your wonderful collection!
