The Storm is Out
A poem dedicated to Guido and his ship captains
by natalie
The storm is out
Weathering gales and waves
Pounce on land
And beat on
the port
The young man
lifts his sea light
tries to gather in
exhasted seamen
on the wake
Men tug; they wrestle
with their ropes;
hoping
beyond hope that
No loads are lost
No ships get tossed
beyond the gale
A solitary captain
His mooring lost
Is thrust about
Beyond the bridge
and beyond the bay;away
he drifts;
ashore
the young man
flashes his sea light;
he wishes
the captain could
secure his ropes
and tighten
his sails
once again
