NAVY WIFE

She stands behind the man she loves,

A Sailor from the sea,

And waves farewell and sheds a tear,

When err he has to leave.

Each day she humbly carries on

This prayer upon her lips,

"Our Heavenly Father keep them safe,

The men who sail our ships."

She often writes and tells him of,

The things gone wrong ashore,

His oft reply "I love you dear,

But I must sail some more."

So oft she stands out on the pier,

A kiss upon her lips,

Reserved for him who holds her heart,

Her Sailor on the ship.

His final day along the rail,

"Request to go ashore,"

"I love you dear, I’m home to stay,

In ships to sail no more."
