Out to Sea

 

The shore fades into the distance

The journey has begun.

A special one left behind

A simple request,

No response.

 

Not surprising,

But disappointing

Too much, too soon.

 

Looking over the bow

Onto the vast ocean of ideas

Looking for a sign

Open to the world.

 

I will return

Back to the shore

With gifts and golden wares

The learning of my journey

A story for all to hear

 

I don’t know if my special one

Will meet me on the way,

I hope she finds it in her heart,

To join me there one day.
