Sailing

Oh to be sailing over the sea, hull down, with the shore on the lee. Hearing the sound of water dashing past the hull, and the mournful cry of a ravenous gull. Pitting ones skills against natures wiles, not another soul in sight, for miles, and miles. Then come the end of the day, dropping anchor in a small secluded bay. Relaxing in the cockpit, supping a drink, watching the sun, as below the horizon it doth slowly sink.
