Dreamer By Default


I balance on a pitching deck
between the sea and sky...
aboard my sturdy ship of life
and try to fathom why

the Lord would choose to make a simple
mariner like me,
my head lost in the distant stars,
my spirit in the sea.

As I set course for shore and home...
it's freedom I exalt.
I'll fill my sails with faith alone,
a dreamer by default.
