A Ship At Sea Poem by Barry Middleton

A Ship At Sea



a ship at sea in ghostly fog
when all the world is gray

still plows its way to destiny
beyond where shadows stay

the only sound upon the deck
the footsteps of one man

who peers into the purblind gloom
for sign of light or land

the ship it seems is in control
there is no turning back

the mist is cool upon his face
as gray fades into black

still plows its way to destiny beyond where shadows stay ... who peers into the purblind gloom for sign of light or land = Very nice verses, the whole metaphor works so well, as a picture of meanings and feelings
