Albatross

Masterfully mounting ocean winds 
unperturbed by turbulence.
Vibrant in the charcoal skies, 
looming o'er cream tipped surf.
Hear his song a shrill sonnet, 
a beckon to those lost at sea.
He pilots only eyes observant,
a luminescent visual cue.
Ushering hapless tide swept souls
 
Into the lands embrace
