Author Notes
A 7-7 couplet to follow Lucy's 575 stanza titled

Here We Rest:
majestically
calving compassion's tombstone
deep navy realms wait

My sincere appreciation to avmurray of FanArtReview.com for the wonderful picture titled
Hymn at the end of the Journey,
which I found to be very appropriate for this theme.
It also reminded me of the musicians who continued to play right up to the very end of the actual incident.

This doesn't surprise me, as I just saw a documentary on the real Titanic, footage from the actual voyage, and the conviction in the eyes of those who survived as they described how they felt.
