Boarding Lost Ships Into Vast Unknown Seas

Boarding Lost Ships Into Vast Unknown Seas Taking lost ships into vast, unknown seas sadly, with dark black sails set to full mast; sailing forth despite many urgent pleas to hold onto precious memories past. Gone, heartfelt treasures one holds deep and dear like wisps of smoke in a swirling whirlwind; struggling against depression and great fear of that deep abyss waiting at the end. Midnight waves arrive to wash life's slate clean with a silent blink they exist no more; so like grass, no longer vast, lush and green soon ahead will be just an empty shore! Tried, shooting vanishing ships full of holes rescue memories before they are gone; but those long shot volleys, take heavy tolls and cut deep into these old fragile bones. Robert J. Lindley, 9-16-2017 Rhyme , subject (The Ravages of Alzheimers ) Note- The unknown , the horrors ones mind can conjure up are all there waiting for the time when clear mind has eroded into a weakened state and life's memories vanish to be replaced by those imagine horrors. The greater the mind's capacity for imagination, the greater and more horrible the terrors.
