stars a dear focus of mine --
a twinkle voyage, fore and aft,
Christ my sure steer rudder --

My anchor is gone,
Drifting,
No wind in my sails,
Rudder is broken,
Destination uncertain,
Drifting,
Now that you are gone.

The boat floats adrift
Slack sails shift from side to side
Oar broke, rudder lost
To wander the ocean wide
Free at incredible cost

stand at the helm of your ship
stop drifting through life

Life's boat is sailing
On the turbulent dark seas
Rudder in God's hands!

If medicine gives us a tail,
The proper should not let it flail.
It should be coiled tight,
Though tea-holding's right,
Or holding the rudder to sail.

I am a ship,
with a sail
reaching toward the ether and
a rudder reaching back
through the water of centuries…
… ahead lies my harbor
of mystery within…

I am a poet... a boat
without sail and rudder
aimlessly sailing
in the stream of poetry...
I'm clearly part of this...
pure daydream,
visionary
Utopian...!

You can't judge a book by its cover
Means an outward look doesn't always cut it
After reading on
It may be found
The contents are like a ship with no rudder

A ship requires a captain, and a rudder
uncharted seas - courage, and a shudder
Picking up speed, egos unchecked
tempt fate, shipwreck

Without convictions, a man resembles
an aimlessly sailing boat, in which both the rudder
and
the anchor is missing!

By trying to snatch nature's rudder from God's almighty hand
Man succeeded in putting life in danger on water, air, and land!

Stay true to your words
embattle the storm
With rudder set deeply
each letter reborn
Stay true to the verse
in couplets of rhyme
To capture the moment
—in oceans of time

Entrust
The rudder of your life's boat into
God's hands
And be certain that it will never sink,
No matter,
How tempestuous the sea becomes!

Rig,
up-draped,
driven eerily…
Riveted,
clouds hold,
ashen orb staring…
Ghostly galleon gallivants

If recklessness,
Doesn't leave the rudder of humanity's boat
Into prudence hands,
Man would soon have to face the typhoon of
Nature's wrath!

OUTWARD BOUND
marry and set course with me where we will,
wed and we will share one boat:
our rudder will be love.

quietly sitting
dark eyes watching the world pass
singing his own song
red through the forest
tail his rudder as he goes
if a fox can smile
a hare passes by
lifting his nose he goes on
maybe tomorrow
Woo-oo-oo-ooo

RIVER LINE TOURIST
National Geographic frame:
pleasure of plum water lilies,
under potent panama sky.
A dugout canoe rows us through.
Embera with beaded skirt, our rudder.
Caiman perched on edge of Chagris River.
