“Deep Promises in the Heart of the Stone”

Blue hues form shadows of what lies beneath

Vision strained yearning to see

Clouds of pleasure sprinkle luminous skies

Beauty births below a surface of lies

Adventures await far and away from the shore

Warm liquid invitations to a depth hidden no more

Stretches of sunlight fight out leftover bore

Courage trickles steadily out of a gray core

Rolled over and forgotten

The steel tones of might

Stone cooling at the bottom

Founding the ocean’s dark & depthless night

Tragic melodies of light in the heart of the wind

Butterfly wings breathe once again

Treasures lie waiting

Majestic discoveries too

What’s beneath is patient

For a love that is true
