red sails

old songs
sunsets
red sails

sail me away
on fluid blue

under silvered
skies
just two

me
you

sing
red sails
in the sunset

and carry
me along

lower your
voice as
you’re singing

fill my
soul with
your song

~*~

and his memory goes
in waves and flows
back to the time
when all his rhyme
was in his muse
and he waxes, enthused
at the memory

of red sails

Mr. Yeats, before I was twelve, I knew the oldies even when they weren't on the top ten...

Nan, thank you so very, very much...

Sven, thanks for the excellent...
