Description
(ZOOM OR YOU'LL MISS DETAILS!)
Hie to lands afar...
Away, oh ships
- Across tireless tide
- O'er limpid brine glide
- Ancient sea-rules abide
To kiss
- The watery lips
- The watery lips
Adjust loud straining spar...
Dire freight inside
- Misery abounding
- Agony compounding
- Fate confounding
To conspire
- E'er to hide
- E'er to hide
For riches hard a-port...
Here, there, set chains
- To strong man tall
- To rare child small
- To fair woman befall
Tears gone
- Nothing remains
- Nothing remains
Dolphins race for sport...
Trackless seas uncertain
- Under flags unflown
- To lands unknown
- Shiv'ring cargos groan
Bring down
- The stormy curtain
- The stormy curtain
Fetid nighttime fears...
Sailor, stow guilty pain
- Memory do thwart
- Gossamer morals distort
- Burden cargo to port
Sad refrain
- None to blame
- None to blame
All on the sea's deaf ears...

Wonderful writing and excellent image to go with it. I love the pov and the sadness in her eyes tells so much.
Splendid work on both scene and story Larry, truly one of your best
Fantastic work! Is she drowning?
WOW...Such a original creation my friend, marvelous work and mood, gorgeous lighting and words! Thank you for sharing!
This one got to me Excellent work
Wow...........
No she is not drowning but has resigned herself to her fate, a fate in somebody else's hands. The only thing she can hang onto is that she is alive. This chapter/image is best understood in the context of what has already happened in the story - the clues are all there. The act of trying to make some sense of it will help you put the coming events into focus... I promise.
What Savage_dragon said....so emotional, magnificent writing and a stunning, dramatic scene! Bravo!
I zoomed in... didn't see any detail that I didn't see at the regular size.
Nice work.
Nice work on the poem and pic!
Wonderful words and image as usual my friend, and very original, but I have to confess to being slightly confused as to how this fits with your story. I think you are being too subtle for us!
