"Come to the edge, he said.
They said: We are afraid.
Come to the edge, he said.
They came,
He pushed them,
and they flew."

Poetry Friday: Come to The Edge
"Come to the edge, he said.
They said: We are afraid.
Come to the edge, he said.
They came,
He pushed them,
and they flew."

Ooh, this is a good one!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this one! I'm going to print this one! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOoh.
ReplyDeleteOOH.
Seriously.
Love it--that theme has been running through my head all week--I may need to steal it for my sig line. : ) The last part of the poem I posted today: "...there are portents abroad of magic and might, and things that are yet to be done. Open the door!"
ReplyDeleteBest wishes for a year full of "seizing the day."
Whoa! And then he pushed them into the pool and they swam! :0)
