Breakthrough

A breakthrough was imminent,
Exhilaration ensued;
  Ships listed idly,
  The HEAVENS were still.

A press conference was called,
Adrenaline spoke well.
   Ere a headline's created
   Ought the SEA not to swell?

So nice to hear from you on a such an old write. I actually thought that this was one of my better earlier efforts---it was written about a month (plus) before I published it. Your kind words continue to encourage me greatly, Michelle! :)

That spoke right to me. you wrote it perfect almost like a letter to assist someone that they do matter. They are needed. Thank you. Your a beautiful writer and your sincerity permeates every letter. Nice allegory and metaphors too.

Gosh, Mark. How much do I owe you?! (Just kidding)...But I do really, really appreciate your reading the poem, letting it sink in, and reacting to it as you did. I was ready to delete it due to lack of interest---even though it's in my top five favorites I've ever written. Muchas gracias, senor!! You've really given me a big boost! Best of everything, Gershon
