OCEAN SONG

A lost cabin, ramshackle grey
A broken down chimney
Our tiny mansion in the sun
What twisted, cruel destiny

After deserting your poor mother
The air thick with smother
We drifted for days
And how your body lays

And oh! my sweet, sweet bride
Sleeping here by my side
With dreams of unborn babies
And bright fields of poppies

This isn’t how it was to be
When we left our burning Normandy
But the Mistral pushed in
Before we’d cleared the country

So as I stand here, in my ragged skivvies
A lone semaphore with hands held high
I swear never again to leave this raft
The cover of the sheltering sky
