David Walker Poet Rhyme

Sailing Into the Wind

Sailing Into the Wind
By David J Walker

How simple 
This idea of a rudder
Small 
but enough to keep
or change the course
Of the largest ships
At sea
And even in the rage of storms 
As fear grips the hearts
	And souls of all those
On board 
calling to their Captain from
Their knees
Who holds fast 
	To the tiller
The power
	To rebuke the wind
And the waves
Tempting fate 
Calling in faith 
For the calm that come again
As the Captain
	With the Tiller
And rudder 
Sail into the wind
