The introductory paragraph should also include the thesis statement, a kind of mini-outline for the paper: it tells the reader what the essay is about. The last sentence of this paragraph must also contain a transitional "hook" which moves the reader to the first paragraph of the body of the paper.

Hey,

Good t be back!

Just so that Ardent knows and isn't worried...

He is worn, weather beaten.
Grizzled and twisted, the swaybacked toothless old mariner, bent by his mistress was.
His eyes sharp and bright; his cheeks blackened and leathered by a lifetime of riding wood and canvas.
Always on the hunt; striving, hoping, searching.
A lifetime.
No regrets.
Belying this ricketed shadow within dreams a lad. Forgotten, yes, but ever present.
It is He that squeals with each swell breached; spray plying its threat of oblivion looming,
It is He that descries a new dawn birthed and is in awe; the old man pauses and smiles.

Brows furrowed as eyes blink back sweat and brine as they always have.
Hands dance, nimble and gnarled, to tame an ebbing gale;
heavy calluses mocking the hemp, siped with the sea’s lashings.
Rigging complains, chiding a hull groaning in chorus. To the unlearned this would terrify but the adept, it comforts.
Like an old married couple will banter and mutter; love exchanging hands with every scowl and eyes rolled.
They are alive.
Each settled in their role.
The mariner, his mistress knows; his queen and first love always.
