Swells Of Fate

 Lonesome eye's
through capping waves
lonely night sounds
my mind has saved

winds of mercy  
glistening dark
distant jet planes
empty grey parks

lights at street corners
trees that brush
in familiar patterns
like sundays rush

of mourners faithful
to memorial stones
with past gone memories
not long left alone

gathering in all
these swells of fate
from distant dreams
of past: to relate

 pressing moments
sealed in rhymes
held by the living
in creations chimes
