The harbor lights


(To Valparaiso)


The harbor lights shining in the distance as I glide my sailboat in the dark ...

the wind rings my copper bell and the sound of the seagulls tells me I am home again....

Last night in the nocturnal fog I anticipated this sight...

And now like million stars the street light above the harbor, zig zag up the hill like the trail of a drunken wizard...

I am entering my harbor, and the reflections on the water give me many trails to follow...

but I know the one to take..

The one that brings me home to you...
