Quay For One
Ennui crept up and perched high
On the shoulder of a roving mind
Hand in hand with gales, now spy
Rainbow shrouded in a misty pall
Golden friend of the sky just left
Entrusted to me a sleepless daze
Though my partner be ever nigh
None but a grey expanse and I be
Mind and sky in murk so cloaked
Verve bubbles blown off the shore
End the free fall into grief, I must
Flailing 'til I find a foothold, a frame
Set alight my moony essence, I will
And imbrue the balmy tinges of élan
Rekindle cinders of passion, I shall.
