Beautiful poem. It reminds me the Nobel prize winning The Old Man And The Sea of Ernest Hemingway.A fisherman is in the hands of God once he sets out to the sea

A poem to be a poem has to say more than the words employed manage to say. Like this one. He braved the sea with only stars above and a lantern below in his (bare) boat. Lovely.

I can see the life of a fisherman in this magnificent poem, dear ate Rose. He always faces danger in the middle of the ocean just to provide food for his family. Being a fisherman requires endurance, skills, and above all, faith....10++++++++++++++
