    Into the Surf


    Feeling something missing
    I reached out to the net
    And I started surfing
    Wondering what I'd get

    Waves of possibilities
    But ultimately dull
    And then to post my final ad
    Expecting the same lull

    Late into the evening
    I started to delete
    Without even reading
    Accepting the defeat

    A unique address caught my eye
    It seemed to call my name
    After midnight what the heck
    But probably just the same

    Emails turned to chatting
    Like one big perfect wave
    Then the sound of his voice
    And now the voice I crave

    Caught inside the impact zone
    I can barely swim
    Yet every day I paddle back
    My heart is now locked in

    I wonder how you find time for writing, the way you approach life's circumstances with your take no prisoners approach. Good story line here, for your sake hope more truth than fiction.

    i'm just like that - writing all my life but not willing 2 share yet.... you inspire me 2 do that now. really like "every day i paddle back" & kept the surf metaphor in the surfing the net. good job.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.
