Just Breathe...

A is for Always, that’s where we embark;
B is for Boat pushing off in the dark;
C is the way that we find and we look;
D is for Diamonds, the bait on the hook;
E is for Evil that lures and entices;
F is for Fear and its many devices;
G is for Good as in hero, and morning;
H is for “Help Me!” — a cry, and a warning;
I am the author who scratches these rhymes;
J’s but a joke monsters make of their crimes;
K is a Kiss, lovers glow with elation;
L is like leaving their last destination;
M is for mirrors you’ll stare in forever;
N is for Night and for Nothing, and Never;
O is for Ovens far under the street;
P is for Piracy, blunt or discreet;
Q is for Quiet (bar one muffled scream);
R is for rivers that flow like a dream;
S is for Somewhere a skull and its smile;
T is for treasures heaped into a pile;
U are the reader that shivers with dread;
W’s warning went over your head;
V is for vile deeds done in the night;
X marks the spot, if you read the map right;
Y’s your last question, the end of the ring;
Z waits alone, and is not for a thing.
