Sailing
Consider the Viking keel
Cutting keen,
Slicing over the green deep.
Hear the hiss of the sea foam
Curling off at the bow.
And the wake closing quietly
In bubbles behind.
Listen to the sound of the thumping drum,
See the helmets shine in the sun.
Feel, with your finger,
The full sail drawn tight
As they drive home before the wind.
