Mooring Poems


Premium MemberFair Winds

Fair winds and following seas.
May full sails surge with scudding breeze.
May peaceful moorings host your craft
wherever indulgent winds waft.

A toast now to your safe return.
May choppy seas be left astern.
May evening offer pleasing berth
to ensconce in halcyon firth.

Premium MemberNew Moorings

Daddy, there are new moorings, come see!
There are shiny pontoon chains and cables,
braided ropes and colorful pennants.
The anchors and piles and buoys all new!

He arose groggily and without ambition
but allowed the boy to lead him to the quay
wherein he saw indeed, new moorings!
His heart quickened.

Badly needed, as the old were worn, 
tattered, and so dangerous

To dream of history’s future.

Premium MemberDo a Little Dance

When you get up in the morning, before you put on the pants, just go ahead and do a little dance. You don't have to know the beat in advance, just move those feet and take a chance. No one's watching, there's no petition, it's just an intuitive tribal tradition. If you do a little

Divine-Mooring

DIVINE-MOORING
Brouhaha filled, I am left with an obscure mind
Many things in life unfair I find
Berserk my soul went
Solitude fermented my present.....
Then, I was a gullible but had around a huge company...
For I silently agreed and blended in their symphony....
But as my voice I raised against their vices many
Was left with torn-relations like a marooned pony
I
