...another old beauty...

Picture by: Ron Anzivino


Poem Artwork

She’s a beauty,
Apparently done her duty,
She has double masts,
A majesty out of the past…

The seven seas she did sail,
No leaks ever did cause her crew to bail,
She flew her flags with pride,
On shore now, her crew that last day cried…

Her sails no longer furled,
Her mahogany still burled,
Her cabin empty of crew,
To her the sea did say adieu…

Boo-hoo. But oh, the tales she could tell if one could decipher the tapping of waves against her rotting old hull.
