Eleanor


The ocean waves are calm tonight
they gently brush the shore
The breeze now constant in my face
I’m here sweet Elenor        

My troubled mind it finds a friend
in rhythmic ocean sounds
The moon is watching over me
as darkness now surrounds

The walk along the beach at night
is healing for my soul
It helps me set priorities
some things I can’t control

Each night I come to share with you
the details of my life
I wish that I could hold you love
I miss you my sweet wife
