Shadows In The Mist The oceans are a necropolis For many shipwrecked souls Centuries of victims roam The margins of its shoals Densest clouds of fog conceal The vestige of their plight Spirits riding high wave’s crest Cloaked in brumous white Searching for their final rest A marker for their grave Something that tells the world They lie beneath the waves Through centuries they wander Undaunted they persist Doomed to roam the oceans Mere shadows in the mist Brian Beaudry |

Very well penned, Brian. The surface of the oceans is so calm and serene it's difficult to imagine what lies beneanth, including the nameless souls in unmarked graves. I like the style..... |

Wow, Brian. this is hauntingly beautiful a soulful write. Brumous...a cool word for a wintry fog. Thanks for the visions. May those wandering souls find a crest upon which to rest...in peace. |
