Scandies Rose

Will you remain with us, Scandies Rose?

we'll always be your rugged salty crew,

chapped by the ocean's kiss.

You were our mainstay and our vessel,

you went down the depths with us.

The sea with her surface of blue glass,

of swells, of tempests -

Our sweet Rose,

Twenty foot seas and icing,

40 mph winds,

you were listing on your starboard

side.

And now the oceanic beauty

has our bodies in her tidal bosom.

The sun gifts the brine golden,

yet, there was never a promise to

return to a misty welcoming harbor.

Neath eve stars,

our wives awakening from dreams

without rest.

Our children's faces stream with

tears trickling down into the

receiving seas of our spirits.

Will the mysteries of the deep

turn them into another life

on land.

In the green waves,

in the seabirds' cries

our souls are sealed,

Poseidon's loss,

as we are everlasting

sons of our Lord's keep. ~

In Loving Memory
