against the wind
along its rails...
as the sheet
pulled. tight and in.
the bow just off point
into the wind...
our direction we anoint.
to dance the waves.
foaming and yauld
lifted we
on this, close hauled.
sturdy and steady,
at the whims of our keel,
will destiny seal...
for how does a fairie tale end?

Really like this one ... it has a timeless feel to it ... I am doing an online course on the English Romantic poets ... this poem echoes of Coleridge ... well penned dear poet ...

thank you for your comment
maybe slight, very slight
the "echoes of Coleridge" so kind of you to suggest.

They end in unimaginable heartbreak, rarely ever spoken, but felt in the silence...

Loved the symbolism and imagery especially the waves and wind... made me feel like I was back at the beach. Could feel the magic. Dreamy! Great write.
