Tome of Days
And I’ll sail forever
My ocean of mischief
A sea of comfort
My hymn of peace
Love comes with in the drift
My heart tears from the rift
Life my burden to hold
Above my shoulders in lift
And I’ll sail forever
The moments
that flatter our cheeks
A child, A fleet
Of inspiring smiles
Our happiness our triumph
The displeasure in vows
My judgment in trials
An episode relaxed
Racing for miles
Who’s to tell me
I cannot sail
Toward which wind wanders
I am but a sun lit rise
Growing ale
Most prisoners ask for freedom
Letters of ordinary tales
Photographs and mail
But I think
I will forever sail
I thank you for your comments
I acknowledge them, I walk on
In search of wonders
Stress free, a place to belong
Don’t you wish you were home
I’m writing for pictures
An image clear
Yet no one sees
Then again who am I to be
I’m only running with the sea
