Lady Of The Harbor

Lady Of The Harbor

as the sun beats like honey on the lady of the harbor
there is stillness in the wind as fabrications set it
puzzled from the smile of her face left to a caress
strapped beneath with pillows in the brigade of the silence
etched across the sky their is thoughts of granduer
we have been here before through the soft still silhouette
let us never forget a promise made amidst a curtain
within certain structural boundaries we stand attentive
her voice is deafening not demanding in quaint understanding
we each have to go pass pillars of time well spent in thought
in the conclaves of societal creatures with various features unleashed in the night

we both were hear before in the duration of the door we can ponder a song
swift movements of vibrant currents of thought permeates our inner existence
we can hear the message as we play the song to help us get along
there's quiet beauty within solace we can lean to recapture
throughout our life we can make things think twice
love is like a phone its always attentive to hear on the other side
love is a lamp for thy feet a chance to meet & greet
love has gained it also has lost humanities heaviest of cost
if we follow too close we may lose hope it helps to go it alone
tempers filled with fire in one's taunt hidden desire
yet the lady of the harbor stands strong amidst the given circumstances

she has shared with visitors coming from different countries
she has gazed into the sun amidst the affliction of 911
she has imbodied deep strength amidst the resilence to impart
she will light the inner spark to where we all need  to go
she stands as a monument of freedom to us all to behold
freedom that so many take for granted
amidst the dew on the ground to the sunlit sky she waves her banner high
people have shunned her yet is it any wonder there is hope in store for everyone one of us
