Everything comes gradually and at its appointed hour.......Ovid
VESSEL OF PEACE
The heart of a poet, the soul of a child Slumbers in innocence, devoid of all guile The mind, the body, heart and soul Poured forth from vessel, blended and whole
The gentle breeze caressing sails Beneath a silver moon, so pale The vessel glides on waters clear Through mists and fogs it perseveres
On oceans of peaceful crystal visions Sail far from harm, and time's, collision The past is last, and life goes on With tides you can rely upon
Sail the vessel, that houses the soul Rest on the seas, as the waves roll..... Pour forth from the vessel, the soul, of the child To the harbor of innocence, across the sea's miles
Peace
