Glad again for twin engines’ hedging bet
Limping home across the Bay on only one
Day’s plans dashed but all hands dry and safe
Time slows to a chugging crawl and starts to chafe

Sleek yachts and daylight race apace
Downwind to the finish borne
Sunset’s pastel reverie shattered
By gay neon sails and shouts that warn
Perfect Teacher

The Great Blue Heron
Doesn’t know he is fishing
Alert eyes fathom the shallows
Without expectation
WELCOME!
