&quot;Great moments are born from great opportunity&#039;s&quot;<br /> Herb Brookes


It was a cold morning
in the heart of summer.

The largest unknown ship sets sail
in route for an unknown location.

The small crew of large men works
day and night to make it on time.

but when day light turns to night light
and the moon is not out.

Water falls from the sky
fighting the never ending battle with water below.

The ship is caught in the middle
but the water is furious and has no mercy.

The engines are off
but the ship moves standing still.

Out of the water but still in it.
Unable to see with sun still out.

The men that see the ship
Are the last to see it.
