Sails At Sunset

Billowing white
A tall masted ship
Gleaming wet
Sped on
In to a setting sun
 
Mizzen and top gallants flying
Such golden light
Fell upon a ship
That sped on 
In to the setting sun
 
Billowing white
Translucent too
Such golden llight
Fell upon a ship
That shone
On the big blue
In to the setting sun
 
She sailed westwards
Followeed a setting sun
Disappeared with it too
Golden light
Replaced with blue
 
She sailed westwards
Golden light shone too
A ship
Swallowed in colour
In to the setting sun
