The Devil’s Apogee – #poetry #NaPoWriMo

Tossed about
By the curse of the sea
The crew, in peril,
Could not break free.

The demons held tight,
Never letting go
Poor little ship,
Thrown about, to and fro.

Damaging waves
Thrashed about the bow
Men, hanging on,
But they didn’t know how

To stop the water
From coming aboard
Surely, someone
Had caused this discord

No time to wonder
No time to blame
The rocks, getting closer
Held each of their names

One by one,
They disappeared
Voices, now silenced
It’s what they had feared

They never did find
This vessel, lost at sea
Surely, evil prevailed
Twas the Devil’s apogee

As sunbeams caress

Awakening majesty

With auras of hope

Sunna softens midnight skies

Kissing the day good morning

 

Authors Note: Sunna is the Norse Goddess of the Sun, also known as Sól, though some hold that Sól is the mother and Sunna Her daughter. (www.thaliatook.com)

If you look closely upon this place
Perhaps you’ll see the captain’s face

Hands on wheel, to steer his boat
The hull of which shall never float

Again upon the endless sea
For once a mighty shipman, he

Could not save his precious vessel
Washed ashore, forever nestled

From the waters, onto the land
Forever lost, in grains of sand
