Sailing, Yes sailing changes everything
How you live and how you die
How you feel and why you cry
Yes sailing, Sailing changes everything
The nights were long, the days were short
If only they all had made it to port
Yes sailing, Sailing changes everything
All for just a moment of fame
Yes sailing, Sailing will never ever be the same
                                                            ­         Amen
I wrote this poem dedicated to all the people who died in the  Sydney to Hobart [Australia] yacht race on Boxing Day in 1998
