A Lovely Poem....

[sildil]

This was written by elbereth_elena and linked to my LJ a few days ago. I said that when I got back from taking eldest to Uni, I would post it here as I liked it so much....

She said..."I suppose you could say it's dedicated to Sil if a Punk elf could bear such a thing! To help with the sea longing (or not as the case may be).....

Sea longing

My mind it is mechanical
A thing of wheels and cogs
Of all the things I learn in life
It keeps most careful logs.

It keeps the neatest records
And stores all things away
Hoping that somehow it might
Be useful one fine day

My heart it sounds a rhythm
A strong and steady beat
To which as I pass on through life
I match the march of feet

It is an endless watch tick
And rarely caused to miss
Except at tears of loved ones
But it’s counting every kiss

My soul it is a wilder thing
A freer laughing sound
It begs to find a sailing ship
And never run aground

It is the crash and splash and dash
Of waves upon the shore
And of body, heart and mind
I love this longing more.

I Love it, thank you!!!
