The Navigate As if in tempest, swells ascend These seas rise up to meet the wind Enfold and hold this hurricane That only you can soothe again Breezing rain clouds with the sun Darkness with the bursting dawn There is no rage inside this storm Ambivalence or hidden harm A reasonable assessment where Is only found of show and share How well you navigate depths fair When only you, will do…or dare As under moon’s control and please You hold within your arms full seas There storms arise and lay to calm In quiet drops within your palm And where there be related state Watermarks articulate Rivers run in currents bold Streams to seas of her I’m told In clues as whirlpools circulate Then man, how well you navigate Copyright Kkh 8/10/03 |

"As if in tempest, swells ascend These seas rise up to meet the wind Enfold and hold this hurricane That only you can soothe again" ~ a wonderful first stanza that sets up the remainder of this remarkable poem. ![]() ![]() EA |

"As under moon’s control and please You hold within your arms full seas There storms arise and lay to calm In quiet drops within your palm And where there be related state Watermarks articulate Rivers run in currents bold Streams to seas of her I’m told" You have written something tremendous here.. I'm putting it in my library. |

A true navigator never gets use to the storms, Kathleen - because if that were to happen, the next one would take him under... Well done! |
