There is always calm before the storm.
The sea was still, nothing but endless blue
The sky turned gray, CRACK,
As the thunder starts getting close together the waves pick up,
Crew members soaked in water as each one runs to their station,
Orders being yelled out by the captain,
The ropes are drenched making it difficult to grasp,
The boat sways violently side to side,
Curses and prayers being preached under our breaths
Waves continuing to raise us higher.
This would be a terrifying situation...I like the line about "curses and prayers" being uttered in the same breath.
