A Land of Destiny Found

Inspired by Where Lies the Land? written by A. H. Clough located in A Children’s Book of Verse, Illustrated by Eric Kincaid, Poems selected by Marjorie Rogers. (Brimax Books)

Upon a ship we travel through day by day for a destination unknown

Ahead we charge wave by wave athirst athirst for new adventure in a land of destiny

Sunny mornings enliven the thoughts and mind as passengers watch the ship cut the waves

Shores receding reminding all of no return all watch with varying degrees of emotion as time revealed flashbacks of past

Listening to the chop chop chop they all felt the exhilaration as the spray of ocean rained drops of positivity on all

All anticipating the joy of a new life they strive to contain the increasing anxiety as realities settle of the need to succeed in a land of new
