The sun
Is setting
In the west

A small
White boat
Is pulling up
To the pier

Tonight
The divers
Will celebrate
With vodka
And shanties
From the heart
Sung under
Their summers
Stars

And Orion
Will stride
Across the sky
Carrying in hand
For all to see
The head
Of the last fear

I think the ending celebrates well the poem, give to it its power....Thank you for the beautiful write.
