My Dear, As i sit here on this rock, and look out at the sea These waters now grey and calm, that took you away from me Another stormy night, down the Californian coast Your ship lies torn and twisted, while the reaper quietly toasts Tomorrow i will start, a new day in my life For on this note i write, to have been proud to be your wife My darling i give to you, this letter on the waves While my words are flowing true, my heart for you still craves My entry for Brian Strand's contest " My Dear " http://www.thehighlanderspoems.com/poetry-soup-2.php
