James Fraser Poet Rhyme

The Lady With the Lantern

On a rocky crop
Looking out to sea
A lady in waiting
In the hope she will see

Her true love
Has been away so long
Out at sea
Where the fishing is strong

The calm sea's
Indicate none
No horizon movement
For her loved one

Her dedication
On this rocky crop
Her love abounds
Which will never stop

Day after day
In hope
He returns
The Lady with the Lantern
