the possession of a vessel

the possession of a vessel 
      

a cradle call
a steady fall
a empty cost
and all's lost

a candle care
a random share
a fullness last
and all's cast

a constant claim 
a longing name
a least of more 
and all's before

a costly care 
a vessel rare
an emptied full
and all's pull

a cradle claim
a constant name
a candle fair 
a vessel care

cradle candle
constant cost
care and cast
and all is last
