Water I’m Drowning


from the ABC set POETRY - A Passage of Motion 2

Take a leap waterfall
Surrounding

Sometimes the earth is flat
When I am tired and
Discouraged

When you’re here I’m not

Bills overdue and on
And on…

You’re the flagship of my
Stability my rudder

My anchor

To test the waters I take
Your hand
Its firm grip leading me

Take a chance never
Give up I won’t.

Thank you so much, Julie. One special treat for writing is saying something worthwhile in a different format. Do you think so? Take care, from Richard and Esther.
