To ________ #7 Poem by Anne Charlotte Lynch Botta

To ________ #7



Upon the sea of life,
Outspread thy spirit's sails; -
Go in thy genius forth, and breast
Its billows and its gales.

Weigh anchor and depart -
Why linger on the shore?
Seize helm and guide thy spirit's bark
These untried waters o'er.

Dread only the dead calm,
Heed not the sky's dark frown;
And if to shipwreck thou art doomed,
Go in the tempest down.
