Waiting For a Ship To Come In....

Hair caressing my face 
                                   as if a lovers’ touch
                                    glare jolting iris
                                  A lighthouse forever
                                  broadcasting the warning
                                      debris flying above
                                      vortex vibrant glory
                                    rubbish has its beauty
                                            Steady
                                  watching and waiting
                                            a galleon
                                         its cargo
                                            of great worth
                                  Westerly gale
                                           howling 
                                    against a hunters moon
                                  behemoth of the ocean
                                  crashing against the shore
                                   ghost voices on the wind
                                        lost ships 
                                    living in the gale
                                     forever screaming
                                      rope be cast
                                          heave ho
                                           night after night 
                                            waiting for a ship
                                             A westerly wind 
                                              carrying fulfillment
                                                A precious cargo ….


                                                  A dream that
                                                   one day a ship
                                                    might just come in ….
