Seaworthy

This beautiful, able, tiny vessel
Slides on streams of blackest waters
In darkest night
Moonshadows swallow available light
The water is onyx
Thick as crude
The pilotless vessel
Pierces headlong
Yet not waivers nor lilts
Her course strong, true
There are clearer waters
For this vessel to ride
Waters which shimmer in sunlight
There may be storms upon these
Illuminated waters
And Neptune swirls the tide itself
This beautiful, able tiny vessel
May only by own admission
Christen her
Seaworthy

The imagery of a pilotless vessel on dark waters paints a stunning image within the mind.

This poem could mean so many different things. It all depends on who is reading it.

Thank you. I'm flattered. I appreciate you taking the time to read m

You are welcome. This poem has story like qualities and allowed me to voyage with this ship.

Yet, I feel you've focused on the darkness of the piece. I'd like to feel it's uplifting, too.

[Poetic Beauty]

But for me the dark waters are not negative. We all must travel through them at some point to get to the light. I see think differently than most people do.

Duly noted.
