Land Ho!

This is my first attempt at writing poetry in over three years:

Words were my anchor.
Though in a sea of worry,
I was grounded. STRONG!

Now all is lost.
Where the wind does blow,
this ship must go. GONE!

I showed this to my sister earlier and she said it was a good start. Kelsey knows my poetry better than I do; so, I value her opinion a lot. She has pretty much every poem memorized...mostly because she used to sneak into my journal and copy whatever poem I wrote that day down in her own. She still has those poems and looks at them regularly. I on the other hand avoid them like a plague. But I'm determined not to anymore. Land Ho!
