A Sailor's Grave


Underneath the thriving Everlight Wisterias
Underneath the Peaceful Blue of night and moon
A Historical legend places a grave of unknown identity
With the stars crafting a Charted Course to anywhere
Out of the blue a ship breaks waves as it passes
A Cool Breeze from the island whips the hair
Of a man who warily watches from the Starboard side

  1. You paint a lovely, haunting scene with your words here, Zach. I like the thought of "the stars crafting a charted course to anywhere" and how it implies the man watching "warily" at the end sailing away from whatever pain that grave represents. Very nice.
