Singing droplets mist before me
Coming up to greet us from the emerald sea.
Dampening. our clothes like mischievous fayes.
As they march forth from the secluded bays.
Thick clouds press in upon our shore
Where we stand ready like all times before.
Rage and tragedy have come but are gone
Quickly receding 'fore the approaching dawn.
I stand here with your hand in mine
And feel your assurance that all will be fine.
Wc stand as conquerors over the vengeful waves
Who had set out to put us in our graves.
Wild winds whirl past the scar.
Though they be too gentle to mar.
My fears are borne away on this wind
I did not but you did them send.
Long light graces me.
As I gaze out to the calm emerald sea.
