Snippet ii


He took a hesitant first step,
Then another two or three,
And then he was marching
Straight out into the sea
They found his body two days
Later, brought in by the tide
They'd no idea why
He'd taken that first stride.
No indication of problems
That made him seek release
Just on his face an expression
Of absolute calm and peace
