Ship to Shore
On the water
It is easy to feel lost
When you are surrounded by nothing
But blue
From the shoreline you get a sense
Of where you are
You can see trees and islands
Things look familiar
That's the view
From land to water
But it is different from water to shore
In the middle of the expanse
Looking around you see
Nothing but trees
No landmarks or signs
It is easy to get lost
everything looks the same
The curves and narrows
Black and green
You must be doubly aware
Both of where you are going
And also where you have been
One eye forward
The other eye back
So you can navigate
The return
Of ship to shore
