Drowned sailors lie in St. Mary's Graveyard
In the Devon fishing village of Appledore
Lifted from the water, lain below the ground
Long lie the many men, lured from land and drowned
Birdsong lulls my footfall. They hear neither sound
Flesh and cares have fled from dull bones bared and browned
Silent strands like sea weeds wrap them round and round
Tides of time now trap them near where waves still pound
These the seas that left them lifeless, lost then found
Borne ashore by mourners, stored where all are bound
The graveyard, Appledore

Drowned sailors lie in St. Mary's Graveyard
In the Devon fishing village of Appledore
Lifted from the water, lain below the ground
Long lie the many men, lured from land and drowned
Birdsong lulls my footfall. They hear neither sound
Flesh and cares have fled from dull bones bared and browned
Silent strands like sea weeds wrap them round and round
Tides of time now trap them near where waves still pound
These the seas that left them lifeless, lost then found
Borne ashore by mourners, stored where all are bound
The graveyard, Appledore
