The Starling
Emerald eyes & golden veils
Shining for the ship we sail
A litany of certainty
Reflecting on forever seas
Navigate to ancient pleas
To stay the course of destiny
With steady hand in sight of fate
A rosary, the bread we break
To crash into the rocks beyond
With fearless and eternal bond
The sea will flow beneath our feet
Frozen by the love we seek
We’ll walk the rest
By grace and sign
An island of our own design
By virtue of our maps resign
To shed our fears and redefine
The polar north of space and time
The shimmer in your eyes i see
A starling that’s the sign we need
Through port & harbor, storm & calm
I’ll pray with you & read you psalms
To find a will, to find a way
To keep us lost another day
To crash into the rocks beyond
With fearless and eternal bond
The sea will flow beneath our feet
Frozen by the love we seek
