A Sailor's Lament -Terza Rima-
Out to sea he goes
the sea's full of tears
a life he had chose.
The weather's not clear
dark clouds in the sky
missing his friends dear.
Sorrowful goodbye
the waves very rough
tears flow from his eyes.
His friends they all died
hit by a rogue wave
weather, it had lied.
Ocean was their grave
'twas hell it had froze
lives, couldn't be saved.
A life he had chose
weather wasn't clear
out to sea he goes.

I haven't penned one of these in quite a while. So, I figured I'd give it a try again.
