Salt-Bums

Open sea mostly been home
brisk wind always a friend.
Dolphin sport’s entertaining
a sailor is all I've ever been.

Days and nights spent rolling
sea rocking her children to sleep.
A wonder, a discovery, a freshness
when diving briskly into the deep.

Banquet from ocean garden
tuna, mackerel, even eel.
Horn of plenty beneath the waves
never long without a meal.

Mother ocean, she tends us well
takes a care of her devoted few.
Salt-bums, we go round and round
sea to sea and crew to crew.

Open sea mostly been home
comfort in canvas filled with wind.
All is well, as it should be, in order
at sea with those called friend.

10/95 in my nautical phase...
