Analysis of And so …we sail



Wind wind, waves waves
thinking of All the promises

i’ve broken
made

Of reflections cast forever on my mind
In mists and memories of days gone by

Rising fully a sail
into winds of future times

In spiritual auras
which ever gently pulse and glow

Merging with
each dawning horizons kiss

A photo visual signature
in living color

A prayer sent…
across the open sea

In peaceful waters
of a friendly port

Waiting, wondering…  
to set aside quiet moments

To be of freedom
reborn…

For the woman
of my dreams

The imprint of one’s spirit
Cast upon the wind…

Is best described
in delicate rhythms

Pure and simply

The balance
of the essential elements…

is the beauty
