Tom, Thank you for your message about Leslie. I was deeply saddened by news of her death, as were you. When she was still very much alive, I learned about her husband, who built boats and sailed them. I sent her this poem, which was my take on their passions were for each other despite his love for boat building and her love for poetry. : The Poet’s Husband I can’t deny the others You smell them on my clothing They who await my chisel and my plane Lovers who leave their chafe Their scars Take their fingertips You don’t forgive that Yet you tender me back to them For your own reasons The sculling in your eyes Betrays your own lovers The king’s words You mark them with the broad arrow The chosen few You weave them through the fairlead You trim the backstay and the forestay They drive your ship into the pinch And you sail away And you sail back wing on wing To tender me Once again
