Light House of the Sea

by Dec 22 actually - Sagittarius

When I rest and communion with sea
My heart weeps tears so joyously
to reflect, how propitious I have been
whilst light shines with our canvasses
To focus on, her precious shells
Blossomed forth her garden’s pearls
We share our fears, in stillness speak
Of endless waters and dreams critique
And there she illustrates within her tides
What comes to pass & settles kind
Eulogize from her exquisite voice
We sail within the winds of choice
My interests her profound concern
Lightly salts our storms, discern
No sadness passing with her rains
more so she prays my conquests gained
we've learned together from time to time
to stay and ride the waves sublime
we shed our doubts in hopes & faith
hold the hands which our hues create
cuddled closely to her motherly breast
while learning brave & benevolent 
life with all it’s losses and gains
well worth our earthly costs in pain
for tenderness and loveliness 
I’d do it all again, for sea is
always there abiding, unafraid
within our tides our special friends
our choice of man’s determination dwells
within the hearts of truth his wealth
a sovereignty, eternal winds will blow
across the seas our candles glow
