Sailing away on a silent night
Take from the book of poems
‘Simply Magical’

The
twinkling starry night
Shining
so bright
The
heavenly sky
Azure
blue, with a hint of sapphire too
A
tall ship sailing by
On
the calmest of seas
Where
its destination is no one knows
But
the gentlest of winds blows
A
maiden propped against the tall tree
Blowing
a kiss, so that the sailor will not miss
Her
on the sailing trip, he carries her heart
So
that they are never depart
He
watches from the tall ship
There
in the distance she has lit her candles
With
a lily in the centre barely visible
To
his eyes, he can just about see his love
And
sweetheart
Their
love story only just beginning
But
this is not the end
They
both know this is just a moment in time
They
will be together once again
And
never be apart
He’ll
work the land like his forefathers
Bring
back the riches that she so deserves
His
Lily, his love, the treasure of his heart
