[Ian McColgin]

A vatiation on that theme:

Home

We pretend that we're pelagic but in truth
There's naught like ending a hard beat
Nestled against a cricket sawing shore
With the Milky Way exploding overhead.
The southsouthwest wind lets Venus set
On the starboard bow while soft wavelets
Slap neighboring hulls to talk to me, telling me
The anchor is secure. Tonight we're home;
Home wherever the anchor is down;
Home where our hearts join the mud;
Home in the ooze rich with nutrients;
Home in impaleozoic slime
From which we came, to which we will return;
Home and anchored in the stream of life.

Beautiful, Joe! That picture oughta be framed.

[John B]

Very nice, you should invite him here since its pretty obvious he's going to be a woodenboat nut soon( even if he doesn't know it yet):)

Joe, that's gorgeous.

Ian, so was that. Yours?
