THRESHOLDS
THRESHOLDS



Thresholds At Sea

WHAT AN EXPERIENCE IT WILL BE,
FOR YOU TO GO ON A SHIP, OUT TO SEA.
YOU WILL SEE LOTS OF GREAT PLACES,
AND MEET MANY NEW FACES.
SET YOUR COURSE, FOR A LIFE THAT'S NEW,
GET TO KNOW YOUR SHIP AND CREW.
YOU WILL WATCH OVER BEAUTIFUL SUNSETS,
AS YOU SCIM ACROSS PLACID INLETS.
MOUNTAINOUS ISLANDS WILL JUT OUT OF NOWHERE,
YOUR DEEPEST THOUGHTS WILL WONDER HOW THEY GOT THERE.
A COLORFUL PALETTE,OF A LOVELY NEW SUNRISE,
WILL MAKE YOU SEE THE WORLD WITH BRAND NEW EYES.
BREATH IN THE WINDS OF THE FRESH SALTED AIR,
KNOW DEEP IN YOUR SOUL IT'S AN HONOR TO BE THERE.
TAKE IN EVERY SOUND AND SIGHT,
FOR THEY WILL HELP YOU SEE THE LIGHT.
AS YOU SEARCH THE DARK SKIES, AND SEE MANY A STAR,
WATCH CAREFULLY PLEASE, FOR THE STAR SHOOTING AFAR.
A LONG WAY OFF ACROSS THE VAST SKY,
THE BRIGHTEST LIGHT WILL CATCH YOUR EYE.
UPON THIS LIGHT A ' TWINKLE '... YOU WILL SEE SOMETHING NEW,
SENT THERE BY GOD, ' ANGLES '... TO WATCH OVER YOU.
SO WHEN YOU SEE THOSE FACETS BLINK,
REMEMBER YOUR LOVED ONES BACK HOME, AND THINK.
IF WE WERE LOOKING IN THE SAME DIRECTION,
WE WILL HAVE SEEN THE SAME ' STAR ' CONNECTION.
IN MY OWN WAY, I AM TRYING TO SAY,
PLEASE TAKE ADVANTAGE OF EVERY NEW DAY.
FOR THE SINCERE BEAUTY OF LIFE, MORE THAN ANYTHING,
WILL TRUELY TEACH, YOUR HEART TO SING.

PROLOGUE:
JOEY:
AS I WROTE THIS POEM FOR YOU I WAS THINKING HOW LUCKY
YOU REALLY ARE. YOU WILL SEE THINGS PEOPLE ONLY DREAM OF.
AS YOU GO ABOUT YOUR LIFE AND BECOME SEAWORTHY, I HOPE YOU
FIND A HAPPINESS THAT WILL FOLLOW YOU EVERYWHERE YOU GO.
A THRESHOLD IS A ' DOORWAY ' OR A NEW ' BEGINNING. ' THIS
IS WHAT I WANT FOR YOU, A ' THRESHOLD, AT SEA.'
GOOD LUCK,
Leah









I WOULD HAVE SAID...
I would have wished you happiness,
and only tears of a smile.
And told you there was no one else,
that deseved sunshine for awhile.

I would have prononouned a blessing,
that cheer would always shine.
And told you that you were a friend,
that I cherished in this time.

I would have said a quiet prayer,
that the gods would carry you.
And all your wishes would overflow,
that your dreams would all come true.

I would have paved the road in gold
to carry you on your new way.
and gently shared how you touched my life,
that is showered with miracles each day.

I would have said it thrilled my soul,
to know you were given love,
and thanked the stars that your twilight prayers,
had been gifted to you from above.

I would have said these things and more,
and danced with a joyful heart.
But you cheated me out of saying these things,
in bitter silence we had to depart.


So these things I would have said, are locked within my
heart...
