The Amber Nichole

I was the captain of the Amber Nichole
No prouder captain was there than me
She was the very essence of my soul
A finer ship never sailed any sea.

We braved the seas from shore to shore
In search of treasure and adventure
The world was our playground to explore
And no place was too far to venture.

Then came that terrible night at sea
With raging thunder that shook my soul
The storm of storms that ripped me
From the deck of the Amber Nichole!

I watched my proud ship from the swells
Through the storm go down by the keel
And I knew that I would never set sail
On her again, nor stand behind her wheel.

I've been stranded here ten years
In this desert so far from sea
Cast away, with only my tears
And my precious memories.

But I'm crying an ocean of tears
So I can set sail again one day
On a raft, I've built out of prayers
I'm just a few million tears away.

And when I find where she lies
Where she sank to Davey's Deep
Then there I'll lay me down to die
And pray the Lord my soul to keep...

On the deck of the Amber Nichole!
In the arms of my little girl
In the bosom of my soul
And, the center of my world.

Hush little darling don't you cry
Your daddy's gonna love ya child
Until the end of time....

                   (To my daughter Amber.....I miss you.)

Throughout the Storm

Thoughts run throughout my mind.
Lightning and thunder bring out remote
ragedies I once attempted to forget.

My tears fall,and are replaced by raindrops.
Just as you replaced the life long sunshine 
I didn't force you to take.
By an eternal,cloudy,and cold july morning.
And now the day I used to expect with enourmus faith 
has turned into a sad storm that 
seems to naot have a sun behind it.

But now is my time,
to come out of this gray storm i once thought
was immortal.
Rain has stopped from falling down.
Once again I've gone trhoughout the storm.

On Loves Fair Shore

On bent knee we did first agree 
To pursue loves true course 
From my trembling lips the question asked 
My eager ears for your words to leave 
From precious vessel and heart receive 
To begin lives journey with friend in hand 
And to ask Gods’ blessings on our plans 
For over treacherous or calm blue seas 
Our two hearts agree to sail with thee 
As our vows tie us two in masters sailors knot 
Tied by you 
We cast off with love full force on our sails 
Sweet serenity upon our face 
Until at last gale force winds appear 
The vessel runs off course 
And two hearts struggle with the winds full force 
Until at last through gale force winds are heard 
The captains shouts as whispers on the wind 
Is your faith shaken by the raging storm 
But I have heard your pleas many times before 
A sailor's true test is in the storm 
Where sailors are made and captains are born 
I have sailed this course many times before 
And you will land once again 
On loves fair shores


Passing Storm

The thunder crashes and the storm rolls in 
My mind drifts 
I think of you again 
The rain comes down in sheets 
I think of you 
my heart skips a beat 
The lighting splits a tree 
I don’t notice the storm 
For you are here with me
