Wayward Winds

The winds blow wayward salty fresh
And lays the salt upon my flesh.
The sky is blue the stars abound,
My spirit soars horizon bound.

My ship flails water to a froth,
Powered by the wind, natures broth.
I feel so free that I would cry,
Just the ocean waters and I.

The days are bright and the nights a sight,
It's magic to me, day or night.
The gifted freedoms wayward bend,
It is the freedom I transcend.

The raw and the crude set my mood
And control to me is my food.
It strokes the essence of my soul,
Makes me willing to pay the toll.

I sail by the powers that be.
Ship and skill and grace of the sea.

What can I say, Seymour? I love the sea and you've just expressed it better than I ever have. A beautiful series of images that culminate in a dense summary. Wonderful. Let's keep this one at the top.
