ShIP rEK

Calm me as the breeze

Calms my heart before it seizes

Wait for my steps

To catch up with  your dance

That drifts as violins

On silken moonbeams

Caressing sands of time

 

Calm as the seas

Reflecting all

On earths mirror

Deceiving the turmoil beneath

Undercurrents that tear at the mud

Revealing 

Ancient shipwrecks of emotion.

 

Hauled to the surface for all to see

Chaos of twisted metal

Glints in the light of your eyes

The waters fall away like a mercurial cloak

Your touch restores the order

Of the drowned and the fallen

 

So call to me now,

Rescue the Mariner

Lost in the Oceans, sunk beneath the  flood

Take me as your own, calm again my heart

Cool my boiling blood, take me for your lover.

I love the 'mercurial cloak', Pete.
