Seascape.

Seascape.

Wind lifts,
Cloud shifts,
Fish leaps,
Kelp drifts.

Wave breaks,
Sun bakes,
Sand blows,
Seal wakes,

Bow glides,
Hull slides,
Sail fills,
Sailor rides,

Gull cries,
Whale sighs,
Dolphin jumps,
Petrel flies.

Surf crashes,
Shoal dashes,
Gale howls,
Rain lashes.

Storm quells,
Sail tells,
Sun dips,
Tide swells.

Vortex whirls,
Current swirls,
Moon pulls,
Sail furls.

Inspired by the ocean and the sheer force of nature, while sailing down the Pacific Coast along Baja California and crossing the Sea of Cortez in Mexico on board Theros, a GibSea 42 ft sailboat.
