I, Towering Thee


Under the cover of darkness..
I, towering Thee,
looking out from the window
leaning ledge for to see
the waters of distance
the knowledge of soon
there mine eyes viewed
the ships sails under moon
a sliver of hope
attempting to please
Aye, Aye to my pirate
who's home from the seas
the stars bright, to guide He
Big Dipper so clear
I watch as the wind howls
bringing Thee near...

'Tis time that keeps waiting
each second a phase
there in the cove
lies mine heart, seeking ways
to torment in touch
to bathe in thy gaze
in piracy moments
thine eyes to survey
as I dreamt from this window,
to the sounds of the sea
I must wait 'til the morn comes
I, towering Thee

I must wander in muse
'til time holds its own
and the Pleasure arrives
I, no longer, alone.

To hear with eyes belongs to love's fine wit"...Shakespeare

Lady O,
Truly you paint
the stars.

Trying to entice the sailor from the sea?
With words such as these, it just might be.

Wonderful Lady O. Enjoyed this. Chris

The Lady speaketh, as if from a time, long-forgotten. Romance set sail with thine words.

No longer alone, and no longer I.

Thank you.
