Night cruise
the swishes at the railing
of her party dress.

Tropic isle
the swaying palms
heart beat time.

Aegean cruise
grandmother’s
story to learn.

Coming aboard
the Black sea cruise
my birth-sign stars.

The ship’s funnel
its shade comes aboard
the sun deck.

Sailing solo
I find the waves glow green
in moonlight.

Ionian whales
the waves from their dives
coming to meet us.

One whale
its wink so knowing
beside our boat.

Fisherman’s boat
the dog alone at Christmas
without a meal.

Tropic isle
filling the sea
the moon pulls back.
