Gianna

Tell me what was that time, when I kneeled to pray, sweating all the while, did you watch me rocking, pipe arms in the rain, it’s not me who’s shocking, the poets of the maritime, say God is never strange, there is a love inside, my tears are unblocking, we pay just the same, see the birds flocking, they fly to other climes, ships ply ancient lanes, twisting between lives, does this make you shock, my choice but to remain, anchors weigh like clocks, please hold my reins.
