Steady As She Goes
To navigate a ship within a storm
Through crashing waves, o'er wild and raging seas
Brave captain, in his very best of form
Calls forth great skills and vital energies.

To find in life its purpose, as is meant
That we may learn its hidden mysteries,
A humble heart will need to grow content
To win its honored battle by degrees.

Musings
Endurance sits so still and quietly
Among the fleeting days and nights of time
She waits to find and choose, though eagerly,
Her loving soul mate, equally sublime.

The joyous bliss and rapture of true love,
Of union born from treasured destiny
Will last, with blessings given from above
That finds, yet sets these two dear souls free.

Endurance
Endurance sits so still and quietly
Among the fleeting days and nights of time
She waits to find and choose, though eagerly,
Her loving soul mate, equally sublime.

The joyous bliss and rapture of true love,
Of union born from treasured destiny
Will last, with blessings given from above
That finds, yet sets these two dear loved ones free.
