Sailing





COME, hoist the sail, the fast let go!
They're seated all aboard.
Wave chases wave in easy flow:
The bay is fair and broad.

The ripples lightly tap the boat.
Loose!-Give her to the wind!
She flies ahead:-They're all afloat:
The strand is far behind...

~ Richard Henry Dana


Sailing is exhilarating and completely enthralling! Next time I'd like to be on the open ocean.
