Mistral Winds

Driven by the Mistral wind

My soul vanquished by the sea

On a course that has no end

Still, where I was meant to be

Mesmerized by ocean tides

As if Heaven here on Earth

Lonely though, my heart abides

I sail further from my birth

Weathered by the salty brine

Now my life's adrift and free

Cradled on this boat of mine

Mistral Winds still carry me

This is one of my favourites of yours, Randy. It just feels right, reads right and I like the sentiment and the format. A punchy rhyme. And I like the story element to your poetry too. (gonna fav)
