Glorious end to an aimless journey
Why do the doves fly so high in the sky?
It is just an evening like the ones
That came long ago before me
Lay down on the soft green grass
You will be asleep..
What calls you from beyond the sea?
A light from the distant green
All shall be gone.. just close your eyes
Close your eyes.. to see the unseen..
Life was once a steep path
But now your miseries are gone
Last ships to the heavens are sailing away
Soon.... you will be ashore..
With everything bright.. you are not alone..
What calls you from beyond the sea?
A light from the distant green
All shall be gone.. just close your eyes..
Close your eyes.. to see the unseen
Now that the sails are set
To sail you back home..

Author notes
This is my song of The Lord of the Rings.. When the sails are set, at the Grey Havens. And perhaps this is my 2nd poem that is free versed, its not my type, but change is good!

I didn't notice that it's written in free verse until I read the author's notes... actually whilst reading, I was contemplating with closed eyes and clinched to the scene of the ship and heaven...
for me it reads smoothly without bumps
... at the moment only one word comes into mind "Awesome" keep on writing, you're an awe-inspiring poet...
