The Tempest At Sea
The winds blew furiously
The waves overwhelming in size.
Men ran to and fro’ knowing
Our ship, she was set to capsize.
A mania of madness set about the crew
Alas it is time, it’s time our lives are through.
Try as I might my hand at the wheel
We were going down fast now exposing our keel.
In the midst of the waves
Just above the crest it did seem
A lady awaited our fate as though in a dream
A cadence rang out calling all to heed
The Tempest, The Tempest, ha haa
The Tempest indeed.
The storm of all storms awaited us there
Our senses, our lives, all laid bare
Yet come morning it was gone
All gone to the sea
The Tempest, The Tempest, had come
Come and gone for you and me.
Dang Vinnie. It was just a cool story ….. until that last line.
Now I can’t get it off my mind!
