The Look She has the look; As though an 1890s architect Had tired of drawing yet another lobster boat, And, glancing out Took note the bother of a denim sea Squeezed into the harbor. Instantly He caught the future. Victorian her lines could be No more. For "wild nights" EMILY progressed. Her mast crept forward. Though bound with hoops straight to her throat, Nevertheless, the gaff rigged, v-cut look Suggested a bowsprit, a thrust of wood Out front to prove The force embosomed In a jib. RMW |

Blossoming, I would imagine, above the bowsprit.. Well done! Live for love. Without love, you don't live. |

Kind Sir, thou brings the harvest of floral and sometimes forgotten words closer now, and once again I breathe a sigh. Thank you. ~Shalom "I am not now that which I have been." |
