if you love me, let me sail While a vessel dares the deep; For the ship 's my wife, and the breath of life Are the raging gales that sweep; a slide over the side and rest at last....... very fine poem. tony

Then, if you love me, let me sail While a vessel dares the deep; For the ship 's my wife, and the breath of life Are the raging gales that sweep; And when I 'm done with calm and blast, A slide o'er the side, and rest at last.

A Sailor's confidence on the sea is well depicted in this nice poem! This poem reminds me of the famous poem, The Ancient Mariner by Samuel Taylor Coleridge!
