Kept me wondering the whole time what made you a terrible sailor. It's hard to stay course at times. I suppose that is the ultimate test. Choosing a course or goal, persevering and accomplishing it. Keep it up :)
Thanks for reading and for your comment. I tried to capture the feeling that the original verse gave me while still playing with the idea of life's wind interfering with one's goals. I went through a couple drafts and the one I settled on was the shortest and simplest. I felt that was appropriate given the inspiration was a limerick.
