Cornwall

I await with bated breath to stand on the shores The land where my mother's last name bores To watch a blade of grass that he may have sowed Or watch the waves crest on the among the crowd To visit the place that he docked That long voyage to start where he rocked Distant clouds the ones I see They may have been the same ones that set him free I'll never meet the man that started it all But I'll feel his presence all around home in Cornwall
