Do I have the Nerve
White foamy waves like a spider’s web
Rising out of the water, surrounding the point
The cliffs are darker at this time of year
No breeze today, so this is a natural spring
Irish spring, how marvelous
I wonder about the dangers of getting closer
Dare I try my feet on these giant rocks?
What if I plunge into the depths of the sea?
Would a merman save me? I stare at the point
Is it the tower of the lost civilization of Atlantis?
I want to get closer, but do I have the nerve?
I do….
