Laura Breidenthal Poet Rhyme

Visions of the New World

Sail, oh ship across the seas
Spread all hails and reveries
May your crafted frame drift as waters expand
Not one plank of wood proclaimed on land
Tales of brackish courage shall be told
Excited male minds in search of gold
To the New World soon to be in view
Of land untouched beyond the great old blue

Timothy Hicks April 14, 2013 at 2:37 PM This was very cool! Discovering America, having no idea what sorta territory lies beyond. It's kinda sad in a way... How the bulk of land has long since been discovered on earth. There maybe a couple uncharted islands, but for sure nothing big. Next stop the ocean or space... Seriously though, good writing!

John Posey April 13, 2013 at 6:04 AM My dear Laura, it's puzzling how we can put so much talent and effort into a write and it receives no recognition. I truly enjoyed this mini-epic historical piece....Well done sweetheart.... I will visit more later..... Jake
