Lisa Ricci Poet Free verse

Don't Let Go

"don"t let go"
like riding a horse
needing to stay in control
riding freely with winds...
when walking alone the shore
having the waves sprinkle
such a feeling is known
certain glows of the sun
that fill hearts and souls
a feeling to last...
just as your loving embrace
and gentle touches reveal
telling me all I need to know
I now say to you
don't let go...
