Away I sail, by the light of dawning day Through tides and swells where the dolphins play To distant shores, I venture With awestruck wonder In silence SAIL This moment I see the glory Wild seagulls, high and soaring Come sail away, o're the lofty seas In search of safe harbors, where souls are set free.

This was a beautiful daydream in my morning. If it weren't for the scent of my coffee, I could have sworn I was still dreaming.

Thank you so much, Arlene! It was an interesting format since I was trying to write it for the rules of Andrea's Help Me Name It poetry contest. We do own a sailboat, so I'm grateful I get to go sailing often :)
