Poem Number 4231
The fog roils gently
Blanketing the wine dark sea
In a lovers grip

"The Wine Dark Sea" is borrowed from the great blind poet. I live on the sea shore and to me "The Wine Dark" sea means just as much as it would to Odysseus.

FYI Greek wine of the classical period was actually more of a blue shade.

It's a pretty picture for us landlubbers OZ but if you're stuck out there the "Wine Dark Sea" is very scary when the fog roils around you.

Small ship brings me joy
Rolling black blanket of sea
I'm a sailor now...............bkay

I actually find it very calming to sit on the rocks and let the fog roll in around me. The sound muffles and your universe is reduced to only a few feet in either direction. No getting seasick on the rocks OZ:) -CM

Perched upon the thwart
Of the grounded old dory
I'm a sailor now

At the age of three, imagining myself a pirate usually...CM

my little toy boat
how it sails down the river
never to be seen. . . . . .. . . . Citydweller

playing Pooh Sticks
the laughter of my children
makes me the winner..............~Q~

Q stays away from the water. Let's hope she's not Penelope:) - CM

Although RAS could be toting an oar around the interior looking for someone who doesn't know what it is - CM (I know bad classical jokes but it's been that sort of day)
