Gusts Of Wild Wind Poem by Michael Pruchnicki

Gusts Of Wild Wind



Gusts of wild wind rampaging!
Edmund Fitzgerald plows through the inland sea.
Screaming birds aloft
deaf to the crew's silent plea!

Near rocks threatening-
crew works to bring the Fitz about!
Loud boiling surf sounding!
Captain knows their fate is nigh!

The rusted hulk rests
in tides that ebb and flow
off shores of Lake Superior-
mortal cries drowned in wild windy gusts!
