AS ALWAYS, your sensativity to the memories of childhood...any child's childhood! are outstanding. It doesn't matter if it is for June or Brian, Tilly or yourself...you travel the roads of memory and bring forth the things that WERE with such beauty. The feelings, the emotions of the child live on in the Man...Man! !

Great idea to play on the names of Moby Dick and Ishmael, Dónall!

Without to use the objects simply as metaphors, you show a great respect to every living and non living creature and bring to life the wind, the yacht, creating a wonderful vivid picture. You have an exceptional sensibility and receptivity, almost childish eyes for the world around....

Look forward to reading your trials and tribulations with King Dong. Seriously enjoyed a poem not in iambic pentameters that's also not about god or love.
