Salute
A distant life a forgotten past
A sailors flag raised at half mast
In respect for those in a time before
For their journeys we never saw
Their tales recorded by time
Forever in the mists shining through their signs
To tell their stories that time forgot
Forever hoping that we have not
Repeated in their regrets or sorrow
Live in today and hope for tomorrow

Wise words well presented Janet, I enjoy this kind of musing myself :)
