No Flowers.....11 Nov 2021 02:23
There are no flowers on a sailor’s grave,
No lilies on an ocean wave,
The only tribute is the seagulls sweep,
And the tears upon a loved one’s cheek,
Fear not for those who go down to the sea in ships,
For as sunset draws near and dawn breaks afar,
We remember those who have crossed the bar.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old,
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun, and in the morning,
We will remember them,
We will remember them.
