Savory


I saw the way the sunlight surrounded him

and how the ocean raged in his eyes

nature loved him

that was no surprise

But as he grew older

and his mind changed with time

he began to see only reason

and missed the rhyme

For no longer could his brilliance

blindly believe

faith was a sandpit

and his mind a sieve
