Poetry in Motion

More about Poetry in Motion

Your wisdom finds a home in your poetry. An appreciation for the folly coupled with bravery to love deeply. The best things in life, only a wisdom of a great man would curate. You will think this is flattery, however you're a man with great qualities.

I seek to be a man like yourself, one should wish to measure to your standard, a yard stick so to speak.

While being a riverboat captain has its moments of strife and granger, your flow down the river of life I find to be a poetry in motion. Here is to a life well lived and may you have many more great years to come.

Post Script, these lyrics from James Taylor seem to capture qualities you value:

Something In The Way She Moves

There's something in the way she moves
Or looks my way, or calls my name
That seems to leave this troubled world behind
If I'm feeling down and blue
Or troubled by some foolish game
She always seems to make me change my mind

And I feel fine anytime she's around me now
She's around me now
Almost all the time
And if I'm well you can tell she's been with me now
She's been with me now quite a long, long time
And I feel fine

Every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning
And I find myself careening
In places where I should not let me go
She has the power to go where no one else can find me
Yes and silently remind me
The happiness and the good times that I know, but as I had got to know them

It isn't what she's got to say
Or how she thinks and where she's been
To me, the words are nice, the way they sound
I like to hear them best that way
It doesn't much matter what they mean
What she says them mostly just to calm me down

And I feel fine anytime she's around me now
She's around me now
Almost all the time
If I'm well you can tell she's been with me now
She's been with me now quite a long, long time
Yes and I feel fine

James Taylor
