Perpetual View from the Rail on Our Recent Cruise (View Video)
Sea/Sky photo by Hoai Nguyen
Clear Blue See
Cruising on the clear blue sea,
I get a clearer picture of you and me.
Motors seemingly wind sailing me,
across an ocean of ideas, silently.
Warm breeze and hot sun,
caressing my burning face,
it's hard to find shade,
or, a more relaxing place.
Where blue waters merge,
with the lighter blue sky.
An image forever unchanged,
infinitely, meeting the eye.
My thoughts intermingle,
with the edge of the ocean.
And sometimes, half watching,
Aye, I see, I see a great notion.
But mostly, it just dulls me to sleep,
I dream of diving with creatures of the deep.

It seems you enjoyed some things on your cruise, but others not so much. I felt for you, with the sun burning your face, and your inability to find a cool shade. When it came to your being dulled to sleep, dreaming of diving with creatures of the deep, I tried to dream of something a little more less scary. Why? Because I’m too much of a chicken.
PS
Lovely and glorious imagery and memories Ron...Wow, sounds like you have beautiful memories of your cruise! I can't help but be jealous.. I wait, I wait..... I'll probably go at the end of the year if everything works out..
Love ya!

I did get four alerts on this poem, and can't seem to get the photo to show.
Good to have you back. You were missed by many of us.
