loving sardines... ode to St Peter
the sun kisses the moon
along a serene trinity road
to a congress of sardiniers
cold naked white landscape gone
now verdant spring and to summer
even to flaming red golden fall
the seasons are framing you
lost your innocence
you glow in the dark
your long shadow at twilight
stretch to a dusk solace selfie
soul at peace with Mother Earth
yours love and tranquility all seasons
you glow in the dark some more
now knowing you know nothing
out of the blue kitchen wall cabinets
found a tinned seafood from Morocco innocence back... consumed the fish...
the happiest day of your life yet!
worries gone... joy rules your time!
baptized... you had sardines for breakfast
ah!
kingdom come joy as it is in heaven!
fisherman Saint Peter looking out for you
from him a boat load of sardines
to partake with your long lost friends...
Sardiniers in Elysian Fields and
Sardiniers in congress at eden Durham
el Sol kisses la Luna once more
as lovingly as ever a kiss could be
like a Durham sardinier would give
to a sardine from the blue sea yonder
