A Vision In White

A vision in white walks the lonely beach
unaware of distant eyes she’s captured
Across ocean waves that seem out of reach
he stands tall on wooden deck enraptured

With a spyglass clutched tightly in his hand
he gazes at her form bathed in moonlight
While naked feet sink into golden sand
not knowing what will come to her this night

Feeling gentle breeze mold silk to her skin
she lifts her head and smiles at the full moon
He can’t wait longer for this prize to win
knowing with sureness in his arms she’ll swoon

A pirate as he can never know love
through it’s a desire in his secret heart
Maybe innocence grants grace from above
as gentler waters he’s willing to chart

She starts when she hears approach from behind
and with tender eyes examines his face
Her hair flows over his fingers entwined
as he takes her in loving a embrace

He whispers gently I’m now home for good
my days on a ship have come to an end
The time I’ve left I’ll live in elfinwood
with the Queen of fairies my lady friend
