Analysis of A mysteries beauty



Tho many been seduced by her mysteries beauty
and braved to sail over her depth of fathoms
very few have lived to tell the tales
for those who survived and tamed her anger
she chose to forgive their sinful intrusions
from the bossom of her peaceful soul
she gave the treasures of her keep
there features etched with knowledge
their once dark crowns now strands of silver
these few tell the stories of all sailors
some dead some forgotten some still alive
regardless of there age,fate,even-demise
the stories that they tell some are reality
some fable some are tales of forgotten time
but most of all they tell secrets of the sea
and the lives of men and women who sailed
vessels of iron,rope,wood,and fabric
upon the vastness of her waters.
