i yearn for a tranquil moment

I yearn for a tranquil moment
To be out upon the sea of harmony,
In that enchanted boat.
Oh, boatman, do you know my heart?

~The Sarashina Diary (Diaries of Court Ladies of Old Japan)

A small section of the Pacific Ocean along the Oregon coastline (2010) and a poem from The Sarashina Diary submitted in response to Travel with Intent’s six word challenge.

It looks quite rough to me, but it is the Pacific after all. Enjoy tranquillity wherever you can find it. 🙂 🙂

  Thank you for visiting and sharing your thoughts . A sailor told me that there are times the Pacific is tranquil…on the surface…and that the Indian Ocean can be like glass. As my breath becomes in sync with the waves…tranquillity. _()_
