As I Step On Water And Stone


From where I once stood

at this sea of Galilee

remembering you

- my beloved -

I travelled the miles

to that one stone

the last rock in the sea

whispering to you

- my father -

a sea of words 

of thought 

of loving memory

slipping from my fingertips

into the fresh sweet 

and the salty waters

where life sprang

where a quest began

where mine will end

one final day near Clifden 

on that one last rock

I will stand overlooking

an Irish ocean

and I will softly smile
