Salted Stillness






It is quiet
Save for the gale
That rattles the doors
As it sweeps ‘cross the dale

It is quiet
Save for the pall
That weighs down the air
Like a misty night-fall

It is quiet
Save for the ache
As elements tremble
Where Sea-hawk hearts break

It is quiet
Save for the tear
That shatters the stillness
Where Patriot fans cheer
