Treading The Tide Poem by Patti Masterman

Treading The Tide



We tread the tide of joy
In childhoods mirth of days​,
Our spirits for to buoy
Our rite of passage ways​.

We tread the tide of folly
In middle years and late,
And Mistletoe and Holly
Can not put off our fate.

We tread the tide alone,
That leads beneath the pier;
The body's vacant throne
That then becomes our bier.
