A villanelle written as a companion piece to my essay The Soul of the Sea
Beautiful! The rhythm of lapping waves.
What do you think of The Old Man and the Sea?
And i’ve always liked Dylan. I can’t hear those lines without remembering the ‘dueling dylans’ in an old movie ‘Dangerous Minds’.
Thank you Brenda! I remember loving The Old Man and the Sea, and have always enjoyed Hemingway’s writing, but I have to admit it’s been many years since reading it now, and I’m probably due a reread, as I can’t remember it very well!
This is really powerful. It feels like the sea is breathing its waves all around
