Affable windswept seas, Awaken distant dreams Affirming lost desires. Agog with passion's will, Awaiting windward hope. Away on bounding crests, Alive to trim such sails. Pleiades-A-Poetry Contest Sponsored by Kim Merryman 08/09/2016

Charlie I keep searching and searching for a poem of yours I have not seen but I am like a boat at ASEA (haha). Just drifting and getting nowhere! I read this one again anyway and am pleased to recall it! Have a happy weekend, my friend. (If you have a favorite poem I have never seen yet, please lead me to it!)
