Lines

Left to right

Ropes

Keeping great ships intact

Yet breaking the sky

Into a million shards of a broken mirror

Bearing the sea's reflection

Reading the waves like words of a book

A book that is always advancing

never ending

written by a writer who never sleeps

The masts stretch up

Reaching for the night sky

Yearning for the stars

But there is only so far they can reach

Unlike the vines on a garden wall

They will never grow

They will remain on the sea

Forever looking up
