Lift Off

when moody waters wrestle
with darkest swirling thoughts
and whirlpools deep inside your mind
are dreams you never caught
take heed and lift your head up
to gaze where stars are found
and stay there till it’s safe again
to land on kinder ground

Chris this is a wonderful inspiring poem. It offers hope. A message so profound and universal as we all need this at times ‘take heed and lift your head up to gaze where stars are found’ beautifully said. A great title too. Lift Off indeed. This is a gorgeous poem. Going into my favorites. Utterly beautiful.

This poem is about feeling sad, like being lost in deep water. But it says to look at the stars and wait until you feel safe again. It gives hope that bad times will pass, and you will find a better place. It’s short, simple, and makes you feel better. Lovely, Chris. Happy weekdays, enjoyed my visit.
