Twenty-seven's not a time for scheming:
Winds within will find the western
shore.
Each choice seems near immobilized with
meaning,
Nor does one dare indulge the drift of
dreaming,
Though winds and dreams alone tell
what's in store.
Years dwindle as one wrestles with a
door.
Some morning you'll be
young again, and sailing
Easily along a quiet bay,
Viewing hills you've walked among,
and failing
Even to recall one tortured day
Nothing told your heart what it must
say.
