Seven days
Brutal nights
Weathered several storms
Crew of fifteen
Down to 6
First storm
Swept up
Most of our
Food supply
Second one
Damaged two sails
What's left
Running
On empty
Despite the
Lessened load
Navigation
Messed up
In the third storm
Compass spinning
Uncontrollably
Blind and without
A goal
We forged onward
It was then that
Thunder rumbled
Followed
Immediately
By a few flashes of
Lightning
Storm looming
Overhead
Rain beating down
Hard and at once
Winds and waves
Swaying us violently
We break through
The waves settle
Rain lightens up
And a faint light
Sweeps across the
Horizon
Fortunately
We had
Just spotted
The beacon of
Hope
