Poem Category: Ships & Oceans

Coming aboard
the Black sea cruise
my birth-sign stars.

The ship’s funnel
its shade comes aboard
the sun deck.

Sailing solo
I find the waves glow green
in moonlight.

Ionian whales
the waves from their dives
coming to meet us.

One whale
its wink so knowing
beside our boat.

Fisherman’s boat
the dog alone at Christmas
without a meal.

Tropic isle
filling the sea
the moon pulls back.

Mediterranean
burning the horizon
two white suns.

Crow’s-nest
all morning
bending beyond the storm.

Dolphins in and out
the waves of the Aegean
arching their backs.
