THE SEA
                             by Martin Zialcita


      There is a darkness                       A fortress of mist  
      In the empty scene;                       Appeared before
      A pervading presence                      The seekers of joy,
      Echoing in the air.                       And a smile 
                                                Danced on the lips 
      A Spanish Galleon crosses                 Of the orphaned child.
      The lonely waters - 
      Searching for land                        As the ship drew near,
      In the endless sea.                       The castle of dreams
                                                Faded into the air
      A child wishes                            And was swept up
      For an answer -                           into the gloomy sky.
      Lost and helpless
      In the ocean of                           The journey continues...
         Sorrows.                               And hope is swallowed
                                                by the ocean of
      Orphaned he was,                                Sorrows.
      Left alone to drift
      With the Galleon of Hope - 
      Wanting to leave
      All sorrows.
