MY LIFE STORY  THE ROCK OF LAURA LEE

 

  MY LIFE STORY

I stood on the rock of

lauralee

silently looking out

to sea

 

could hear the howling

of the wind

as it came rushng round

the bend

 

watched your ship sail

out to sea

leaving the port of

lauralee

 

each day I return to

view

looking at the sea so

blue

 

scanning the horizon, no

ship in sight

perhaps a phantom in the

night

 

today I'm standing here

again

watching your ship rounding

the bend

 

catching you in the misty

air

my heart leaped to meet

you there

 

once more invited home

with me

standing on the rock of

lauralee.
