Sail AwayA Poem by David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic) Free verse with occasional rhyme Sail away Cast off those hawsers That tie the spirit to the quay Lift the anchor of your soul… Catch the wind in billowed sail Set the course Then sail away… Permit the wind to be your master Let chance rule the day Take no heed of others needs Embrace Nature… Sail Away… Free the binds that fetter feelings Give free reign to oceans of emotion Feel the deck beneath you reeling Let the sea spray be your lotion Free the tiller…to the whims of Nature Loose the bonds to rote and routine Feel the joy of rampant rapture Loose the binds of mankind mean And sail…sail away 108 words-21 lines © 2019 David O Whalen (O Haolin in Celtic) |
