There was a lone boat
In the seam of the earth and the sky
And a full life silently drowsing
Torched by noon
A sailor swayed to the ocean’s rhythms
Nudging him along, into a well-earned rest
A line was cast
As he basked in his refuge of oak
Savoring, the shades of summer
No words came to pass
Just passive skies
For miles and miles
