Seabird
Sky paints with seasoned brush
Sea answers - a whispered hush
Sunbeam bounds on all around
This mute, commonly-held ground
Obvious allure shining bright
Spectacle of deflected light
White-cap endlessly waving
Soul full of space, waiting, craving
For surely this is God laughing
A nod to one just in passing
Or, could this be another sign
A place to pause this point in time
Regal image so large and rich
Salt spray carry my deepest wish
To artist and engineer
Of all spread before me here
Love is too obtuse a word
For such a magical seabird
An unsung song of the heart
Must be all that I can impart
Be it naked, and quite off-key
‘Tis all I have before I flee
And turn away before I see
All I need kneeling before thee
