Adrift
We unfurled the sail, windward,A blush of air
And the keel kissed a
Gentle wave.
The horizon, a shadow
Without foundation, remained
Out of reach.
We steered with a caress,
A lovers touch to the tiller
Took us out, deep beyond
Safe harbours.
Our lives around us,
Gathered on a deck,
Stowed for a storm
Forecast by a storm begun
In a land untouched
By the sea.
