LAH-DE-DAH, lah-de-dee
Lady on a yawl slid into the sea
Lady on a yawl slid into the sea
Fell from grace
Off the bow did she.
Called for help not once but three.
Bobbed fore and aft
Like a piece of debris
Clung to a shell
Hopelessly.
Towed pell mell
During this embrace
Wore seaweed lace
Drank algae tea.
Who could it be
On this ominous race
Might be you; hope not me
Lah-de-dah, shell-shocked she
Our lady...
Lady of the sea.
Lady of the sea.

Thank you Alan and watch out world!
ReplyDeleteI think of this lady as a pearl in a shell. The poem is just as lovely as your other pieces. I at first saw only the torso, legs and arms, but looking again I see her beautiful face with colorful encrusted hair.
ReplyDeleteIncredibly beautiful art and poem.
