What do you think of the beginning of my ballade?
Sail over the sea, O strong willed ship
Pierce through its raging face
The blow of the wind shall lend you wings
to let us travel forth, apace
Your wooden deck is tramp'd and drumm’d
By the captain's restless feet
His eyes are ravaged by despair
His heart feels every beat
For they’d been on the damned sea
for two months, maybe three
and the stormy grayish bed
was all their eyes could see
The clouds were racing o’er their heads
And the sun was flickering dim
Their ship, a tiny speck, wandered
On waters dark and grim
Here and then a light beam escaped
To be welcomed by their eyes
A moment later it was gone
To their tearful wails and sighs
(Unfinished to be continued…)
(This was just the beginning)
Thank You,
