Day Twelve

~~o~-

Sun glimmers on gentle waters
Sailors study on deck
Shade of a big white sail

~~o~-

Three sextants peer at horizon
Hunting for sun
Local area noon approaches

~~o~-

Tantalizing aroma engulfs the cabin
Crew in anticipation
Fresh bread in the oven

~~o~-

After a day of deep sleep
Wind goes back to work
Veer, back, veer, back
Forgot how to do it

~~o~-

A school of fish does a victory lap
Around white hull of the boat
“Try again tomorrow!”
