I Searched For Noah's Ark
The gulls are soaring
Diving for food they’ve located
The beach filled with dead crabs
I am a sailor in the night watching the star
confuses my mind so tired....so tired.
White clouds covering the blue sky
Enchanting me making me dream
Yet when the moon
And the clouds disappear
The dreams turn into a nightmare
And hard it is to understand.
I Will search for tranquillity
I shall locate the ship before it leaves
Where will I search?
This is I, this is me, this is life;
Noah's Ark in the mist of the horizon
I swim, fast and faster
I will climb the ladders of rope
I will congregate with life...again.
The dog and the barks at me
Waggling their tails in joy
I pat their heads
They bite my soul!
The Tom cat shagging in contempt
The female cat screaming with pain;
I watch.....Nature taking place
I am stunned and confused
As playfully they lick each other.
The bull is lying on his back
The cow feeding her calves
No time to drink milk said I
Grapes of divinity shall quench my thirst
Whilst drunk I search for a goat.
With a heart that loses its thumping
The lungs stops me breathing.....
For a while....
The horse, the mare, the donkeys
Crunching damp straw
The rain still pouring down
And I am still thirsty,
As the birds and the bees make themselves known.
Earth and sea are one
A city has been lost to the dolphins
As the sharks bite through the boat,
My house is now empty,
The family no longer waiting
How hard it is to be a good
How easy it is to be bad.
