I must now ebb The time has come to sail my oceans
Rolling away from you like the waves from the shore rippling out to the vastness of the sea that beckons my ship of folly
I'll not ask you to stand the night vigil on the shoreline of memory
You are here on the beaches of my memory even though I drift the tides
If you should look into a starlit night and see a reflection of me know only that I will one day come crashing again to the shore swept homeward by the pull of the tide and you

like the waves from the shore
rippling out to the vastness of the sea
that beckons my ship of folly
I'll not ask you
to stand the night vigil
on the shoreline
of memory
Lovely work Velvet,i love it merci
