A very well-written Minute poem about a poet who allow the sea guide his thoughts and moods to write what drifts to him while he is deep in thought the words become clear and his refuge is there.

Deep itself as said about the ocean. I have always enjoyed reading your verse DS

I sail amid the endless seas
with grace and ease.
The waves and tide,
this poet's guide.

Wonderfully penned.

Best wishes in the contest

...There's refuge here.. What a breezy, beautiful entry into this contest. Can I borrow your muse? You were truly inspired. My mind is never this peaceful or focused. This is a perfect minute poem that I predict will do well. Great job! Lynda

Great writing. Love the minute poem. The picture is also very gorgeous. To sail the endless seas and explore the waters is a very exciting setting. I enjoyed taking a cruise...was breathtaking until the water got rocky.

This is the third minute I have read today, and you have some stiff competition in this contest. This example should be capable of holding its own in the race for literary immortality.

I'm intrigued by the thought of 'The waves and tide,
this poet's guide.
I free the helm to search and drift' allowing the water to be your muse. This has put me in a sea of deep though.
