It was not necessary
for the two of us to shout
above the roar of the boat's motor,
white foam behind us,
and black liquid night all around.
We were thankful for the
red and green lights on the buoys,
and far away
a line of yellow dots
encircled us
and put an edge to eternity.
When we jumped the wake
of an inbound freighter
our hearts dropped a beat.
Then we heard the dredges drumming
where men worked through the night
to let us know the world was alive.
