"the sail mystique"

alabaster,
from the master
like curdled lumps of gray,
icy floaers,
sailimg boaters
a breeze can make a day. . .

white as plaster,
sailing faster
sliding down the bay,
hope promoters
thrill emoters
fly the sky today. . .

omen casters,
spectrums vaster
ride the bow wave spray,
Melville quoters,
golden throaters
an hour's like a day
