Kim Rodrigues Poet Verse

Find Me Then

In this verse you will find my love story, where the ocean feels like home. We met when the horror movie, “The Fog,” was at the theater. I have also used imagery from “Peter Pan.”


FIND ME THEN


                        Find me then, where history repeats —
            your sure smile trustfully pulls me in!
I boldly sit amidst bullrushes —
the pounding of a crocodile heart!
                         Find me then, where passion rolls me o’er,
            great adventure framed, by wild waters.
The shallow tick of time scares me so!
                         As the fog dissipates, find me then…
