The names are fake, but the story is real;<br /> <br /> When wealth is held as one’s only ideal, <br /> <br /> And believed to be the key to success,<br /> <br /> Well, then I hope that in peace they may rest.

O Seas,

ever changing,

ever shifting,

never forgiving.


One second, waves

lapping, gentle.

the next, no warning,

raging.


Tossing my boat,

to and fro.

the waters may

churn, but I won’t

get Seasick.


This storm, too

shall pass.

Red sky at morn-

I will not waver.
