Cast off by an unexpected glance
set sail on those rose colored seas

venturing in to ole
uncharted waters

going as far
as the wind
will take us

the breeze fails
as all is calm
and still

no land in sight
wearing the heart
on my sleeve

trim the jib
and jibe ho
moving so very slow

settled in
and long goes the night

basking in
the star filled night

raising canvas

drifting with the peace
of my muse's veil...

Beautifully tranquil setting you've penned here.
Loved the warm breeze and every last ripple.

Such a pretty poem~
