Wishing

By fredhib

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

WISHING Fly, drift, sail, Across indifferent waves. Pushed on ageless tides, Frustrated by indifferent currents, Wind; always testing; trying; teasing. Becalmed. Stormbound. Set sail, take the helm and pray. Guide, or be guided? Fly; thoughts, Shatter surface-tension. Unfurl the Spinnaker, Rise upwards, break free, Breathe! Rocket to celestial shores. Triumph! Drift; feelings, Untroubled by restless waves. Float on timeless rhythms of currents and tides. Pray. Be guided to golden sands, and, Rest in Eden’s shade. Paradise. Sail; desires, passions, Grasp the steerboard. Command. Certain of yourself, Sure. Plough a furrow to windward, Course by instinct. Fulfilled!
