Robert L. Hinshaw Poet Rhyme

Alone Upon the Sea

Ah! To be adrift upon the boundless sea, sailing, sailing, sailing!

   Alone with the sea and pristine sky with southerly winds prevailing.

      No particular destination in mind as upon the surging sea I plod,

          Nor is there another soul in view as I quietly commune with God!
