Sailing...

Adrift


Existing in a mental daze
and soaking up the summer sun
while gazing as the clouds drift by
in enigmatic puffs of cotton on blue.

The spark of something deep within
comes to life on board a sailing vessel
while surrounded by kindred spirits
who share in the calm surrounding you.

Would that this day could last forever
just being where the sea meets the sky
and basking in the retreating rays
as sundown marks the coming night.

Adrift, alone, or not...
But feeling contentment
and being lulled by 
the gentle rocking of a boat.

I don't sail often but when I do it's memorable!  There's something so utterly relaxing about being out on the water in a boat just being.
