Almost On the Edge of the Map

Almost on the edge of the map Standing on the sand holding her board watching the wave and tide she knew no matter how far out she went she’d have to come back this way here be dragons here be dragons the sun sitting on the horizon gleaming shimmer like a vikings hoard a golden koi swimming tail flicking on its side here be dragons today’s promise almost spent and frayed here be dragons plunging out towards the heart at the end of the day here be dragons she knew no matter how far out she’d have to come back this way here be dragons

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

"Here be dragons" like the gong in an ashram, it resonates within. Great poem! Elizabeth McCann
