Arlene Smith Poet Rhyme

Find Me At Six--- Where the Albatross Dives Deep

Find me where the albatross dives deep,
to rescue sailor's souls as maidens weep.
My time to brave the gales is at an end.
To golden shores I'll sail on softer wind.
My bones lie deep beneath the turquoise sea.
In Davy's locker; that's where you'll find me.
