Never a direct course
so not unlike a sail
we turn up
the wind shifts
and then we must fall off
but always arrive
an evening shore
a sky open like arms
and unlike a sail
it’s such joy
to be
becalmed
Never a direct course
so not unlike a sail
we turn up
the wind shifts
and then we must fall off
but always arrive
an evening shore
a sky open like arms
and unlike a sail
it’s such joy
to be
becalmed
Life can sometimes make us feel like a ship drifting in the ocean! Well written

“to be becalmed” – how really love this line in a great poem. And so true it is “Never a direct course” but somehow the course may lead us to that place where we become becalmed. 🙂
