Beautiful poem. It showcases lines which behold the magic of a seasoned poet, for whom you commemorate with his own craft. I especially enjoy the line about every sunset being the first or last, and beholding the mystery of the next one.
Can’t wait for ‘the broken boat.’ It will soon be drifting to near shores.
Affectionately ….Your Pirate,
