IRON MEN OF CROSBY

Iron men of Crosby, erect and emboldened
Staring, unflinching,out to sea
Daring every surging tide
To wash right over you

Born of the same mould, brothers cloned
A common purpose there must be
Are you the saviours of mankind
Assigned to save the free?

A test of strength and courage
Father time will tell
Perhaps a new beginning
Would prove your real mettle

Iron men of Crosby, the salt may be your worth
But what of Mother Nature
Is She, within those waters
The reason for your birth?
