Hoist the Mainsail
#WritcoPoemPrompt31
Ride forth against the tide,
Rise above the surf of challenges,
Welcome every sunrise with a vision,
Send off every sunset with hope...

Clang
ships bell
out to sea
incoming storm
warnings unheeded
"all hands hoist the mainsail"
headlong deeper towards trouble
oh how the weather deceived her
north atlantic flotsam and jetsam
sirens singing happily for new wrecks.
