To Hear The Tales Of Old

The wind, oh so crisp and clean, howls through the twisted trees. And the night laid drapery, Darkness...... stretching out over churning seas. The shroud of pitch rests calmly, with no moon to covet the sky. And the cliffs rocky tower, Warning...... to any galleons drifting by. On so many a night like this, when the beach is a torrent of waves. And the wind seems to call, Beckoning...... from within the cliffs hidden caves. The ghostly, haunted surface sings, if you but know how to listen. And the captured souls that cry, Wailing...... from beneath the watery prism. The stories of pirates and storms, of ships that had lost their way. And the murky depths of the ocean, Imprisoning...... them with the light of day.
