No More In The Coffers Keep No more in the coffers keep Before thine hand I shall not sleep To smoke a cigarette beside the bale Near the riverhead where the women wail Boundless be the lands of plenty Beyond the shore of this fine jetty Where silver clouds are lined with gold And none of the days are bitter cold From the word of my fortunate tongue What is the total of the earthly sum How is it so, that one man begs While others watch without their legs Hoist the yardarm and trim back the sail And listen for the one that comes to wail Immense thyself beside the sea And come to honour the real me And know thy hand, of my loving heart Before my eyes grow old and I depart

Going to the sea honors me really nice thing I like to do. Am getting older now, but always will adore the sea. As a young child sat at edge of waves and just watched them come and go. Picked seashells and had a great time each summer on vacation. I like this poem and the reminders it brings to me of my youthfulness.
