| THE SEA AND THE SHIP | |
|
A
casual sunny ray pierces through dark clouds. The
wind causes the surf to foam. A
stormy petrel cries piercingly. The
ship undulates and expects the storm. The
rocks - a chain, rusted from the seaweed- prepare
themselves for the collision. The
waves - blue deep with a crown of foam - race
with time. And
the ship - with sails like wings of a sea gull - dances
with the wind. The
masts bend like reeds. The
deck creaks threateningly. The
sails flap in the wind with strident sound. Where
is the captain? The
breath of the storm saturates the air. The
waves lave the tops of the rocks. The
sea promulgates the beginning with a roar. … The
sea - it is just a post card with a sea landscape behind a small ship, made of sea shells and mussels.
