7. Nautical Twilight

The rules are as follows :
Please post entry by bitem format. If you are not upgraded, you may post a poem directly in the forum but its rating must NOT exceed 13+. All posts submitted in bitem format cannot exceed 18+ rating. If you do not know how to post your entry in bitem format, please see "How to Post in A Forum" .
Please state which title you have chosen in the subject of your post.
Congrats folks, at this time: Up to three entries per person. However, you can only enter once per title. Judging is based on separate entries, so he or she can place more than once within a round.
Poems MUST be newly created for this contest. Do not change the title of an existing piece in order to enter. Doing that defeats the purpose of this contest.
Entries must be in by 11:59pm Writing.Com time on August 12, 2016.
Judging will begin August 12, 2016 and winners will be announced within 4 to 6 weeks. I allow that length of time because it truly depends on the amount of entries and my work schedule. I do review the poems while the contest is still open; however, I go back and read them again during the judging process.
There is NO entry fee but donations are greatly appreciated!
Prizes:
First Place: A Shiny LPC Merit Badge and 20,000 gps
Second Place: A Shiny LPC Merit Badge and 10,000 gps
Third Place: A Shiny LPC Merit Badge
Honorable Mentions: 5,000 gps
I will award more than one winner per place if I deem necessary. Here are the "Winners of Lexi's Contests" [18+].
