Helena

She moves in glorious motion, Her progress marked by many eyes. A vision to delight the crowd gathered together for this her debut. Coloured ribbons adorn her, as She moves in glorious motion, Sweeping across the bright tableau. Her beauty and grace seen by all. Light sparkles from faceted jewels decorating her slim figure. She moves in glorious motion, dancing as if floating on clouds. Born of man yet with divine grace, answering swiftly to wind and wave. The Clipper sprints seaward, yet still, She moves in glorious motion.

Subtle parallels...the art of romantic poetizing...not something that I've excelled at, however something I can enjoy and appreciate. Kudos to you, Shane!! Your friend, Mikki :)

Hello little one, Have no idea where this poem came from, but here it is. Helena was the name of a Clipper ship as well as that of a very attractive actress. Thank you for stopping in. love Shane xxx
