on the edge of forever
I stand looking into tomorrow
seas that rage around me
give pause unto the dawn
waters that are rising
to my platform home
clouds darkened thunder
threaten to unfurl
is this a solemn ending
or steps to a new day
innocent child expecting
protection come what may
the sun now is rising
above the waters edge
bringing wondrous hope
for the coming day
In a list

A fine metaphor for the storms in life and the uncertainty of what tomorrow holds.
You have been winkled!

this is a very beautiful poem, and it has a very soft feel to it. I love the 3rd stanza :
is this a solemn ending
or steps to a new day
innocent child expecting
protection come what may
This really stood out in my mind to me...excellent! loved reading this ~blessings~
