In the rushing of waves he calls to me Lost long ago on ship sailing the sea Voice of anguish he tries to set me free My ears deaf to his echoed fervent plea I shall not leave him much longer alone Nor attune my heart or ever condone thoughts of listening to wild winds bemoan the fate of the man I once called my own Our children all grown with mates at their side The rushing waves at tonight's eventide shall carry me to the depths where he died no longer apart, in death we'll abide No more salty tears shall fall from my eyes I'll not hear his sad voice in anguished cries ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, A Monorhyme Sonnet

Excellent monorhyme sonnet, great depth, flow, and images, plus the intensity of feelings. Perfect title and fantastic closing lines. A 7 indeed.

Danny, you know I'm not a show off, and this sonnet is no more special than those you write, but I will humbly take your comments. Thanks.
