Voyage Into the Mirror

When I saw Richard last Sailing the Winds of Change His mainsail unfluraled by Whisper With a Siren's song in range The melody sweet like wine Of love's long lost refrain While the Saint danced upon the rigging His face full of Neptune's Reign A voyage is filled with peril Each league and nautical mile A journey of self discovery Etched upon a dolphin's smile The voyage nears it's destination The vessel hull splintered wood A question posed unanswered Did he do all he could?

A great introspective poem; I have asked that same question of myself.
