Brave Sea>>> Poem by Manonton Dalan

big body water I thread
white caps like lilies
adorn apex of tall waves
sprays and rocks my ship
been like this for days
never letting up a minute
haven't seen fish surface
nor ribbons like snakes

I am getting use to rocking
I feel like babes in cradle
rocks by my mom to go sleep
horizon is darker than usual
no tall ships sailing isles
we are alone burning fuel
showing world we can do too
we got paid well to do so
