STREAMLINERA: OCEAN-LINER, by                    
First Line: With arrow-speed an agile greyhound runs
Last Line: With vibrant power, conquers time and space.
Subject(s): Ships & Shipping


With arrow-speed an agile greyhound runs
A seaward race with Time, his haunches gleaming
Against the sky. He leaps with force that stuns
Defiant winds and fogs low-hanging, streaming
Along his path, nor veers until the race
Is won. A metal greyhound quivering, teeming
With vibrant power, conquers Time and Space.
