Yann Rolland Poet Free verse

New Inspirations

I seek. Like a mystical sailor,
I seek in the infinite corridors,
Of Rudolf Samoylovich, navy blue,
I seek in the peace of travels,

I search without digging the blue nights,
I seek with my hands, in disgrace,
I seek with the power of polar bears,
Without believing I see, without seeing what I see.

I seek. Like a mystical sailor,
Like Jack London, in full or empty cabins,
On the cold ice of the Rudolf Samoylovich,
What am I looking for? New inspirations. 


PS, Rudolf Samoylovich, is an enormous ship in the harbor, i stop by, everyday

Bj Legros Kelley July 14, 2023 at 3:05 PM This is a powerful poem of such vivid words, I too can see, and yet where I live, there is only much heat and not much water. Your poem is incredible! How wonderful. I used to live in the north, and saw ships, and the cold icy snow. This poem has brought back a cool and wonderous flood of memories, days of long ago on the border of Canada and the United States. Lovely memories, thank you! Yann Rolland July 14, 2023 at 3:25 PM Thanks you so much BJ, this is incredible comment, i am glad you appreciated have a nice sunday

Andrea Dietrich June 28, 2023 at 1:08 PM wow, you actually see that ship each day. You are way up north?? That's where I imagine you must be from your reference to Jack London and the ice. Very nice! Yann Rolland July 14, 2023 at 3:26 PM Ooooppps, i am late indeed Andrea, i live in Europe in Britanny, sometimes it looks like North, i am glad your appreciated
