When you feel
your lifeboat
taking on
too much water,
don’t look down,
watching yourself
drown in sorrow.
Look up to me;
I will lead you
to the safe harbor.

Inspirational hope, and direction to we who would look downwards with our situations that would present despair....Powerful words, in brevity make our souls look up to Him who is our source of hope! Awesome write!

What a nice, upbeat sort of write, restores one's faith in human nature. It could be meant metaphorically I think.
Congrats on your bronze trophy. -
OH... love this take on the prompt. SO true... it seems that i tend to look the other way too often when all i needed to do was look up and see that extended hand. thank you.
