Night on the Sea 

Breeze at fifteen
The hours before dawn
My clothing is warm
Waves & moon urge us on
		
Open gloved hands 
Grip the leather bound wheel
Helm gentle and firm
The path that we steer
 
Chasing a Star
Red Binnacle Glow
Off watch crew
sleeping below
                    
Chute’s full & curling
3 quarters up the luff 
If there’s more to life… 
Well… this is Enough                                                           

In that moment
Rushing with Gaia
Mammalian breath
whispers in our wake 


But still I’m 
Standing on a Whale
Fishing for minnows
Dining on minnow
I wish for whale

Eyes turn to flashes
Closing from the horizon
20 knot dolphins
arrive alongside

I drive and wonder
About Love and Desire
All of it 
Born on the blue

Of Mind and matter
Of breeze and fire
In constant motion
Sails held on a clew

Dreams are tid bits, 
post cards and mail
Sent by eternity		
From beyond
This sparkling night on the sea

But still I’m
Standing on a whale	
Fishing for minnows	
Dining on minnow
Wishing for whale

Standing on a whale
Fishing for minnows	
Dining on minnow
Wishing for whale...
