“We are all lonely voyagers sailing on lifes ebb tide, To a far off place were all stripling warriors have died, Sometime at eve when the tide is low, The voices call us back to the rippling waters flow, Even though our boat sailed with love in our hearts, Neither our dreams or plans would keep heaven far apart, We drift through the hush of Gods twilight pale, With no response to our friendly hail, Suddenly he pulls us through the reefs cutting sea, Back to the place that he asked us to be, The friendly barges that were anchored so near, In silent sorrow drop their salted tears, Yet I have no fear of home and work done well, In this life I broke the waves and rode the swell, So dont look for me on the oceans floor to find, Ive never left the weathered docks of your loving mind, For I am in the moon, the wind and the whales evening song, I am the sailor of eternity whose voyage is not gone.” ~ Shannon L.
