Maybe "departing" instead of "leaving." In English, we'd say "the ship is leaving," but not (usually) " a leaving ship." Language is a funny thing, and English is funnier than most.
The place where sky and sea come together - that's eternity. The ship seems to be lost in eternity. That's my mood. I do hope everybody will return save.
Thanks for this discussion here; there are many points reminding of, as MS Estonia. Sunk 28.9.1994. Left Tallinn. 852 sunk. 137 survived.
- It was quite rough sea that night. And MS Estonia got some extra Engine-power because she was planned to sail in heavy ices without any Ice-breakers assistance; the captain used this extra power againts the heavy SW-gale to keep the timetable...
Alse there is still several different theories how (or why) MS Estonia sunk.

Thanks Karol!
Bill: Done! Thank you.
I took this photo when visited Tallinn. Walked a couple hours in Old Tallinn. Nice weather...
Words meaning so much, but so little. Or as Wallace Stevens:
TO THE ROARING WIND
What syllables are you seeking,
vocalissimus,
in the distances of sleep?
Speak it.
yes nice one tikkis

That's my mood.
I do hope everybody will return save.
