Not immigrating
Flowing with the wind

Waves emigrating from shore
Not immigrating
Flowing with the wind
02.28.21 – 03.27.21
Six lights on opposite shore
Blinking out of sync
Saying they’re lonely
01.05.21
No waves to be heard
Only a mild breeze
Wind and ocean in balance
12.07.20
The wind held its breath –
The whole time we sailed
In the Bluenose II Schooner

Notes to this poem…
Gazelle, machine –
Horse, deer, wind –
Or some other thing –
What do I like my running
To be compared to?
There’s only one thing –
That my running
Truly compares to –
That is the wind –
I run like the wind

Notes to this poem…
The sea is troubled –
But not by the wind –
High tide seas without a breeze

Notes to this poem…
I wish my feelings –
Were just as fleeting –
As my thoughts were in the wind

Notes to this poem…
There was zero wind today –
So I ran real fast –
To generate some

Something’s making waves
Under the surface –
Because nothing is above

Notes to this poem…
A catamaran –
Going with the wind –
But using engine power

Catamaran Lucia –
Going with the wind –
With engine – not sail
