whistling through the aisles, the sound reverberating
as it sweeps along the colonnade.
Moonlight penetrates ancient glass stained windows,

A Walk To St Mary's ChurchA restless night, another hum-drum day,

The Crooning BeeMy heart feels crestfallen
Whenever I think about that day
She looked like a bee collecting pollen
In the garden of Deity as she pray

not figuring quick and sharp their ends
black churning death coming from the sea
