Fair Winds and Following Seas

My head will never low


 Though I may choose to go


Where lives are to and fro


 my head, will never, low


 My grip will never slip


Though muscles may not rip


When others start to flip


my grip, will never, slip


My eyes will never close


Though darkness may soon show


 Where honor never goes


 my eyes, will never, close


 My heart will never moor


 Though age may close the door


 Traversing the world's shores


 my heart, will never, moor

Your good character shows well for others to see. You are a master teacher my fellow writer. Cheers for the effort. Bill Cottringer. P.S. Check out my last couple of articels--Unconditional Love, Two Profound Words, Life is a Test and Centeredness. I think we are moving towards the same truths, priciples and realities and people like us need to validate each other so we can keep moving in the right direction.

Amen Mark. My soul will never leave, its home here near the sea, either.
Great job!
