lazy sail

lazy sail

under 10 knots of wind
going 3 miles an hour
a flat sea --
I’ve waited all winter
for sailing like this!
there’s no place we have to be
no schedule to keep
only a lazy afternoon
in a warm breeze
moving at a snail’s pace
across the water
just sitting and
watching the world go by
I’m grateful for today

  1. Marney, after reading your words, I am almost ready to give up my recliner and head back to your type of sailing. My son and I are so thankful for the unforgettable week we had ON AZURE WIND. We will treasure our memories. It was perfect but wish my son could have met you since Dave's personna has always been vastly enhanced by your presence.
