Sea-Farers and the Sea 2

Down! Down! Down!
The ship sailed endlessly
To the world beyond.
Storms beat,waves roared
But on and on we sailed 
Under the howling wind 
Like a focused runner on 
His mark.
  Ahoy! Cried one,lo there 
Lies the Isle of Isidur.
One almost went over-
Board,another's cry could 
Be taken to be demise of 
A loved one.
Anchored we at the shore
Went in the sea-farers in 
Search of the hidden 
Treasures.
The atmosphere was filled
With eerie sounds 
Echoing names. What 
Names?
Those who graced the isle
Before.
With a melted heart,we 
Knew a monster's lair we
Had being.
The horizon looks bleak,
What really lies ahead?
