to cross the waters |

His sweet imploring vainly cries out to me. No, I dare not gaze upon those waters. I feel the mist and waves beckon me to venture out on tranquil shores. Yet his cries are fruitless. If I should drift on seas serene and cross the waters vast, Surely I would reach those happy shores - Or would I wander aimlessly and never find my home? His cries are constant, but soft. He almost persuades me. Gently he cries to bid me adrift. Shall I lift my eyes toward the one to whom he leads? Does he somehow know you're there? He almost persuades me. Almost. |

Go for it! Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Nice write, Tracey. PS, The answer is always NO, Until the question is asked. |

I am happy to see a new poem from you. It leaves me wondering if the shore is a good place to venture - or is it a case of appearances being deceptive. You give me something to puzzle over this morning. Alison |

I'm intrigued by this write. Some higher call maybe, a vocation ... who knows. Only in deep silence will you perceive total clarity about whatever asks for a decision. Love, Margherita "Love is the One who masters all things; |
