Golden rays eroding she stands alone,
Through the roar with a moan.
Endless scurge a road is etched in the gloom.
A misty lihgt errie at loom.
Light Red Cliff...
Rolling flashes and rumbling sky,
Circle smoke, a question
In the captain's face of why...
The boat"Lady Delestra" is telling the tale;
Gone is yesterday in ropes and sails.
Light Red Cliff...
The captain now breaking upon the blackened swell,
A concern in the log book prays to tell.
Precious cargo stowed away,
Sickened sailors their toll to pay.
Light Red Cliff...
Lights of red and green;
Are these not seen?
On deck the crews' eyes are keen.
A blip shows the pilot to fly on white and red;
The bow light is steady ahead.
Light Red Cliff...
After such a vicious night,
The light red cliff as our never failing light;
The "Lady Delesrta" is safe and moored,
Already her cargo is safe in store.
Please tell me what you think
