Look at me, I'm so scared
yet exhilarated
to dance on  curls of  waves,
surfing bold and reckless
no arms holding to props
flying with the waters
on the gust of wind. wheeee!

Someday I will look back
to this day when forces
of nature deigned to bow
to my whims and freed me
from the fetters fear brings
let  me soar unafraid
over a boundless sea.

Thanks Pink for liking my granddaughter. And Lori, it's not like the chicken or the egg, I think the egg came first (er, the photo and out came the poem).

Ahhh . . . That is such a wonderful feeling, to be able to spit in the wind, so to speak.
