rumbling thrum beneath my feet
gently rocking side to side
blue skies and cotton candy clouds
evergreen covered rocky islands
slowly drifting by
another ferry passes
carrying passengers
bound for the shore
I’ve just left
ninety minutes slips away
far too quickly and far too slowly
time to settle in
breathe deeply, observe
feel the wind, hear the seagulls cry
underlying all
an eagerness to arrive
this journey has a destination
a loved one to see
can’t end soon enough
but this step could last all day

For those keeping track, it’s April 4th, but yes, there have only been 3 poems posted. I did say there were no guarantees all 30 would be posted, but yesterday’s did get written. I was just too tired … and it’s awfully short … and well … see for yourself. Presented for your amusement.
no words to write
brain gone to sleep
packed
in suitcase
ready for morning
Words written in my journal just after that … “Nope got nothing else, but I suppose it counts as a poem.” It’s at least close =)
