Celebrate - "St. Helena Interlude", a poem



ST. HELENA INTERLUDE by Jay Ailworth
We have ended our three day St. Helena interlude,
Now heading for a distant western longitude,
Salvador, Brazil is our next port of call,
1790 miles of open ocean before we make landfall.
The wind is light and from the east,
Not good for us and we are feeding the diesel beast.
We need to be free of the island's effect,
So wind and waves can combine for the proper cause and effect.
The ocean is so large and we so small,
If it stays this way it could be a mighty long haul.

Until next time...

Charlie, Cathy & Jay
