Patterns In The Tide

[Moonstone]

Patterns in the Tide

Swirling around in the ocean tide
Seeks a crystal skull that’s unwilling to hide
As patterns form within the foam
A mermaid sought to take him home
And while he’s found the world’s asunder
Above the clouds begin to cover with thunder
While the crystal skull’s clutched within the mermaid’s palm
The goddess divines her path with her quiet psalms
So that as the crystal skull is finally found
And its spirit essence is blessed along with sound
Of the sea, of the manmade ocean, a yearning takes place
Along in motion and as the mermaid takes care of his face
The expressions become motionless,
for the mermaid never communicates
And the crystal skull never seeks to dictate
The mermaid carries him safely home
Where the earth meets heaven on a distant ‘phone
Where the infinite ocean laps gently at the shore
And the crystal skull knows he won’t be hidden no more
Where the stars peek out between their clouds of old
And where the one who befriends him writes poems of gold
Where he is able to pass his wisdom on to where it belongs
Where the mermaid is able to sing the messages of the siren’s song
And finally, finally, he is at peace listening to the distant sound
Of the ocean to say that at least, and as the story writes on
The crystal companion is welcomed in a place where we can both belong.[/font]
