"Human heart like a ship in calm waters or storm, emotions effect with highs and lows, so be patience for the calm." quote by poet Waves continuous move A ship an island a home A voyage across the earth Welcoming sandy shores A storm appears Every breath, storm’s wrath Winds howl screams High waves beat Storm becomes still Waves hush Early morning Illuminating sun A path back to Safe harbor Welcoming shore Voyage survives

Dear Eve, your poetic journey parallels the ship navigating through calm waters and storms, each reflecting the ebb and flow of human emotions. In the tumult of life's storms, shows you the poet's wisdom: "Human heart like a ship in calm waters or storm, emotions effect with highs and lows, so be patient for the calm." Embrace patience amidst the turbulence, knowing that every storm eventually subsides, giving way to the tranquil calm. I love how you show the ship finding its path back to safe harbor, and may you navigate through life's challenges, emerging stronger and wiser, towards the welcoming shores of peace and serenity. - Blessings, Daniel

Strange I was thinking of a galleon, but my muse failed me. Your imagery is always fascinating. Best for a win.
