The Boat

The Boat

Silently night descended upon them 
desolate and alone, all night long on the ocean 
where fog trails and mist creeps 
the whisle of a boat, calls and cries unendingly 
like some lost child in tears and in trouble.

 Navigating through the darkness 
the strength of the waves 
swung the boat 
from side to side like a pendulum 
the winds were ferocious 
needless to say but this i must say 
was the view from the shore. 

The lonely boat returns victorious 
but battered and bruised 
from last nights ordeal 
the morning sun creeps 
making a breakthrough 
the early birds sing 
circulating around the boat 
hoping to steal the catch of the day.

Hey MR. SMOOTH!!.... this is an excellent use of adjectives and poetic prose to create perfect ambiance within your VERY creative phrasing...... painting a strong portrait of the fishing ship making its way back to port and topped off with a soft ending where the "early birds" wait to grab free portions of the catch so difficult

to have brought to shore........ well conceived and BEAUTIFULLY delivered!!.......ALL STARS!!...... well done........ and .......WELCOME to COSMO!!...... LOVE and ROCKETS!!.......T xo.  ?

I think this poem captures well for me the painting Fishermen at Sea by J.M.W. Turner. Awesome job!
