THE SAILING SHIP AND THE YOUNG BOYS THOUGHTS

THE TIME --- MIDDLE SEPTEMBER OF THE YEAR 1796.

THE PLACE A PORTSMOUTH ENGLAND PIER. THE THYME A
MERE LAD OF 15 YEARS HAVING BEEN SIGNED ABOARD AN
OLD DEEP HULLED TRIPLE MASTED TRADING SHIP OF HER
MAJESTIE'S COMMERCIAL FLEET>JUST AFTER HE KISSES HIS
BELOVED MOMS TEAR FILLED EYES FOR PERHAPS THE VERY LAST TIME?

___________HIS MANY THOUGHTS__________

PEERING OUT HIS NEW STARBOARD SIDE PORTHOLE
HIS YOUNG NOVICE MIND FILLED WITH MANY FEARS

HE SAW NOTHING MORE THAN SUCH A VAST DARK OCEAN
ABOUT TO EMBARK UPON FROM HIS PASSING BOYHOOD YEARS

SHE WAS TO SET SAIL AT NIGHT FALL'S NEXT HIGH TIDE
FOR THE COLONIES MOST ACTIVE BOSTON TRADING PORT

CARRYING A FULL CAGO HOLD OF ENGLAND' FINEST BEST GOODS
EARNING HANDSOME REVENUES, PLUS TAXES FOR THOSE TORTS

THE OFFSHORE NORTH SEA WINDS, WERE QUITE ACTIVE
AS THEY SO OFTEN ARE KNOWN TO LIKE TO MISBEHAVE

ALREADY HIS FIRST PANGS OF SEASICKNESS WERE A SETTIN IN
CAUSED BY THOSE RELENTLESS AND CHOPPY NINE FOOT WAVES

FOR IT WAS TO BE HIS JOURNEY INTO MANHOOD
THUS HIM LEAVING HIS MOTHERS PROTECTIVE SIDE

TO VENTUE INTO MANY STRANGE NEW UNFRIENDLY WORLDS
HIS GUTS AND WILL ABOUT TO BE SEVERELY TESTED N' TRIED

ALAS THE ORDER FROM THE SHORT STOCKY SHABBY CAPTAIN
CARRYING IN ONE HAND HIS EARLY RATION OF THE KINGS RUM

BREAK AWAY FROM THE SECURING MOORING LINES ATTACHED
FOR BY EARLY DAYLIGHT SHALL THE SIGHTS OF SCOTLAND COME

BOLSON BREAK OUT CLOTH FOR ALL THREE RIGGINGS
DRESS HER IN FULL SAILS TO CATCH THE PREVAILIN WINDS

DECKHANDS SCURRY AND SECUE AMONGST THE HIGH TOPMASTS
CREW ALL PRAY TO THE SEAGODS, TO FORGIVE YOUR BLOODY SINS

AS THE HELMSMAN STEERED INTO THOSE ANGRY BREAKERS
THE OLD GIRL LAUNCHED HER PROUDLY OAK GROWN BOW

TO MEET THE FULL CHALLENGES OF A SOMETIMES ANGY GRAY SEA
AND DEEP WITHIN HIMSELF, THAT BOY WAS QUICKY GROWING NOW

AND TOO ALL OF THIS THAT YOUNG BOY FULLY REALIZED
WHEN THAT WESTERLY BOSTON SKYLINE FINALLY DID APPEAR

SUDDENLY A YOUNG MAN HAD HE QUICKLY GROWN INTO
NOW VOID FOREVER OF HIS BOYHOOD DOUBTS AND FEARS

This poem was really written about my very my own life where at the tender age of just 20. (circa 1963) Thats when I began working for a family owned out of state ambulance service in Manchester NH often making Life and Death Emergency Runs down into the city of Boston Mass located some 50 or so miles away.
Boston had it's 35 different hospitals back then considered amongst the best in the entire world including the top rated Boston Childrens Hospital and Beth Israel Children's Hospital Specialty section!

At times I found myself driving missions of Mercy for young new born babies on life support with an attending Intensive Care Nurse racing at speeds well over er100 miles an hour with every split second so valuable to preserve and save so that infant could survive and have the greatest gift in our universe. Called LIFE. Few places on earth had facilities to effectivley deal with defective hearts and lungs on newborns.

Thus this WAS MY VERY OWN JOURNEY IN MANHOOD ARRIVING IN BOSTON that inspired me to compose this somewhat related Poem.
