A Perfect Ending To A Perfect Day Poem by Francis Duggan

The sun goes down beyond the western hill
And the sea this evening seldom so tranquil
And i feel peace it quietly comes to me
On silent wings across the silent sea.

The ocean seems asleep no breakers roar
And gentle waves lap gently on the shore
And scarce a puff of breeze on Blackrock bay
And a perfect ending to a perfect day.

'Twould seem to me that the sea too has a soul
And all her stronger emotions under control
All the anger that she felt she did release
And the sea this evening with herself at peace.

A nip of Winter in the frosty air
But i feel free of any stress or care
And i feel peace it gently comes to me
On silent wings across the silent sea.
