Traveling Seas

Joshua Stone 1987 (Portsmouth, Virginia)



To the seas we sail, and to the ports we long for; we have been seen wanting and have not given up. We shall see once again a port of long missing but until then keep sailing; for fair winds and calm seas are what we hope to see. Let us travel within his embrace and seek his guidance.

About this poem
