An Extraordinary Acrostic
Exciting voyages aboard
xebec, with its sharp lateens,
travels the salt seas.
Rapacious corsair’s keel
across a world of plunder.
Ocean’s opportunity calls
riding waves, rowing calms.
Danger braved
in storms and squalls,
nightime’s peaceful starlight
air warm and steady abaft
rolling gently on the swell
yawing to the rudder’s pull.
