~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Beyond Destiny
He walked the deck of the Prentiss Royal
Tossed about by stormy sea
Thinking of his love back home
Now beyond his destiny
As waves billowed overhead
The ship pitching to and fro
He knew with certain clarity
Her touch he'd never know
Yet he could imagine her now
Sun shining golden in her hair
Cheeks bright and rosy
Scent lightly in the air
Further and further the schooner plunged
Deeper into the towering waves
As men cried out quite desperately
Unto the God that saves
He felt no need to cry
No need to beg and plead
For long ago as a lad
His savior addressed that need
And as the ship descended
Unto it's eternal place
His thoughts returned to his love
With a smile upon his face
Russ

Very well written. It is amazing how one can remember the good things, even upon death.

Hey Russ....even without the graphics it's absolutely beautiful. *smile*
Seriously, I loved the imagery I got from this.. This poem kinda reminded me of my own thoughts two years ago when I was involved in an accident.

This is an amazingly beautiful description of true love and faith. Death does not mean the end of love. Memories can truly sustain love forever.
