Abstract
The poem is about Time, in both its enthralling and destructive aspects, so it is very much to Slessor's point (he doesn't capitalise 'Time' because he thinks of it as a friend), that the momentary and elusive beauty of the procession of yachts should already, at their first appearance, be stamped with the marks of age.
