If we could fly away
together, you and me,
and take our needed rest
on a sailing ship at sea,
and find a fish to eat,
would we need more,
would we stay there,
or fly back to the shore?
I took these pictures of the “Zeemeeuw” ( “Seagull”, a sailing vessel my son works on) , earlier this month in the harbour of Terschelling

This is a poem that could make you smile from the tip of the hair on your head down to your toenails, Ina. It’s almost a children’s rhyme, but enlivens life wonderfully.
Miss you posting in poets corner, Ina
What a beautiful picture, Ina … and the lines that accompany it also!
Hi John, thank you very much!
I agree with what Thomas said – makes me smile. And it’d be a delightful poem for children too!
Hi Betty
I am pleased with the smile
thank you!
‘and find a fish to eat,
would we need more,’
Ah … the simple things nourish love so! Lovely, Ina.
Hi Diane,

Hoi Francina

Oh I love this Ina. The longing. The sea. And ships at sea.
Thank you Walter!
