Balcony

BALCONY

Leaning over deep and dark,
dreaming far from land.
Sound waves cure my heart.
hourglass harbors shore’s sand.

The sea sparkles with pirate’s gold,
true treasure cosseted down under.
Winsome whales and shark eyes cold,
i glory in God’s ocean of wonder.

I slide my palm upon the salty rail,
lean in and listen, to the Spirit’s whisper.
I see all of life stretched out fine and frail.
Fresh wind infused, within my soul, to transfer -

heavenbound, from ship to sailing sky.
Emotions felt profoundly in this open space,
My sea green eyes doth travel far and wide, low and high.
I can see forever, in our Creator's deep blue grace.
