Notes About The Poem

Listen to poem:

Seafaring Dreams

a page of my diary
penned in blues

crimped fold over fold
crafted into an origami boat
set afloat to drift free

dreams and aspirations
captured in yearning
poured out and launched

seafaring under a starry vault
desperate plea to the winds of fate
