Anne-Marie

Anne-Marie, the beautiful,
Was sought by every single lad
Whoever was her quiet desire?
"The sea", she said, "the sea"

Anne-Marie, the fortunate,
You cannot imagine the riches she had
What was hidden in her attire?
"The sea", she said, "the sea"

Anne-Marie, the brightest mind,
Stacks of books and walls of writing
What was captured in her elegant script?
"The sea", she said, "the sea"

Anne-Marie, the sweetest voice,
Like the sorrow of eternal fighting
What made her loathe to idly sit?
"The sea", she said, "the sea"

Anne-Marie, the independent,
Shunned was talk of God and Christ
What deity was beyond her question?
"The sea", she said, "the sea"

Anne-Marie, the long-lost soul,
One day walked into the mist
What claimed her, why is she ne'er mentioned?



.."The sea", she said, "the sea".
