Soulboat Poem by Alla Bozarth

May you be launched in fair weather,
with the wind at your back
and the shining stars streaming you through
the whole map of heaven.

May your strong sails of bright silk billow,
proud and free with the sun’s golden blessing,
and carry you, safe and well
and all the way home.
