Deep in the heart

0 posted 2001-07-23 05:05 PM


Inspired by Bob and Ron

Bouys roll about
                  clanging
Ships slice through the swells
       Sailors lined up
      in formation
While dolphins dance
                     for them
   And boats push
        the water before them
             Trudging back
    to their wharfs
While Gulls hover
                         on the invisible



Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.
Philip Sidney (1554-1586) Loving in Truth

they do have that way about them do they not???

I really liked the line breaks here. . . they gave that idea of being on the waves. . . and seeing the different things here and there. . .

great job. . .

Well worded I esecail like the line about the gulls hovering on the invisible, of coarse it's a rise of air, but maybe not.

Do not fear going forward slowly,
Fear only standing still.
