Bright Seagull by Devi Nina Bingham

Bright seagull soaring above

Caring for nothing but the day's catch

Your silent flight brings to my troubled mind

Words unspoken, and the empty bed of love

Hope torn from my adoring breast

Beasts of earth chained to memories so unkind.


O, that you would whisk me away from this stormy gale

Carefree heart that built smooth sand castles

Needing nothing more than sunshine and the sea

In simpler times, delighting in a shovel and a pale

Without passion, and without hassles

Bright seagull, what will comfort me?
