In a typical year, if your commute to work is 60 minutes to and fro, cumulatively, you would spend an average of 20.8 days or more just on commuting.

These folks commute to work each day on these open boats.
As much as I like water, I doubt if this would not frighten the jeepers out of me having to sit like this on an open boat, day in, day out and without life vests.
For me, it’s only good for a one-time adventure. Well, I guess they’ve got to do what needs to be done.

Below is my first just published Poetry Book “Out of the silent breath” which is available on Amazon and Smashwords.
When you buy my book, you support me in an invaluable manner.
Brand me whole as only you can
That the entire score of me
Knows nothing but the fullness of you.

Oh my gosh, I absolutely love your poem, “Brand Me.” And, yes, I agree, I would never survive that water commute. Yikers!

I like water, but it won’t be pleasurable to be in an open boat without a life vest.

Beautiful poem, Jacqueline. The boat ride would work as an every day commute for me. Bad hair day. 🙂

Great time to spend with your book! I agree about loving this poem today. It is very special. Do you know the song “Fill My Cup, Lord?” Great lover’s talk too.
