PINCHING THE WIND!!

I was out sailing the other day, and the wind was very busy at keeping me occupied. It would come from the north for about 5 min., then turn and come from the east, then change again, and again. I had to continually find the pinch of the wind and work my boat from there to find its direction so I could catch it in my sail. I really felt the wind was playing with me and my imagination just sailed from there. Read below, in one breath. Ahhh!!! Summer is here!!!

THE WIND AND I by W.Booth

I pinched the Wind
just wanted to play
he grabbed my sail
we blew away
across the water
through the waves
the Wind and I
on a summer's day!

Very nice, very expressive.
I always used to love the 'dangle' point where the wind had you in it's grasp.
It was the point (even for just a split second) that the wind had it's way with you...
As each boat type handles differently (as does each low, or high front)
...so does our ability to 'play'

yet I wonder sometimes, does the wind in the end get the last laugh?

Thanks
