Love Poem: The Spinning Shank

The Spinning Shank

From stem to stern
This ship sails across the ocean
It’s helm turns it’s rudder
Always in your direction

Both lost in this bottle, out at sea
I send this message to you 
Hoping it will find you
Below in our cabin

I lay with you
Turning on your lighthouse light
Spinning it around and around
As the water flows above

Through the cabin porthole 
I hear a yell from up above
Land ahoy it’s loud and clear
The anchor is placed deep into the sea

This storm of thunder
With Lighting flashing I gaze down upon you
The last sound that is heard
You whispering into my ear

I love you
