Alone on a Starlit Sea
March 20, 2022
the old man groans
as he tugs on the sail
the sound slices through silence
like a palm cleaving still water
little lights giggle
from high up above
the warmth of a love lost
familiar, yet unreachable
the sympathetic breeze
shares the old man’s cigar
savoring the dying embers
until the old man sits alone
alone on a starlit sea

This poem is about the sense of familial comfort that nature can lend to even those who may feel that they are all alone.
