Wind is like the sea;

when it whispers we forget

its enormity.

The History of Boat and Sea

-

Her sail a dress,

a soft caress

of keel and rudder

fingertips –

the ocean spreads

like parting lips

and falls in love

with sailing ships.

-

Beneath the skies

the ocean sighs,

and feels the touch

of every boat –

a sea of love

keeps each afloat.

Each ocean wave

is a love note.

-

The history

of boat and sea

has always been

a love affair –

with every touch

these lovers share

an effortless

and perfect prayer.

-

These lovers share

a perfect prayer,

an effortless

and perfect prayer –

each consummated

love affair

sails onward through

the salty air!
