Sailing Ships Within My Mind

Taking trips on sailing ships,
     my baby by my side;
locking lips as hearts eclipse;
     lay back, enjoy the ride.

Our boat will sail as winds prevail
     to corners of the earth;
blue skies will hale, as seas unveil,
     our destiny’s new birth.

The rolling seas put hearts at ease,
     enjoying quiet time;
our souls to please, by gentle breeze,
     our secret thoughts sublime.

These notions find within my mind,
     these tender thoughts of you;
with stars aligned our dreams unwind,
     and show love’s brilliant hue.
