The sailors at work in the rigging or
    out astride the spars,
The round masts, the swinging motion
    of the hulls, the slender serpentine     pennants,
The large and small steamers in
    motion, the pilots in their
    pilot-houses,
The white wake left by the passage

(Crossing Brooklyn Ferry 309)
