Today I feel like a little light hardiness, so I am sharing a fun poem I wrote. I hope you enjoy the read.
Your comments are always welcome, and so is sharing. Enjoy!
The excitement in our voices
Sitting and waiting
A day long-awaited
We listen to instructions
Some of the Excitement gone
We have trained and practiced
This day-long anticipated
Final checks made
Assurances that all would go well
Our order of decent
Chosen by cards
Chosen to be last by draw
I watched as
One by one
They made the jump
My turn!
And fear sets in
Why did I agree?
Oh, my God! I can’t do this!
There must be a mistake
Why am I on this plane?
I walk to the door
I see the others floating
I’ve changed my mind
I said as I step back
Sorry you must
And I am pushed out the door
My mind is in turmoil
The fear grows stronger with each second
What were the instructions?
I am falling fast
I see the others floating
I look down to see
The ground is racing up fast!
To welcome me
I struggle to remember
What were those instructions?
I say my prayers
Realizing this is it
What is that buzz?
It seems to get louder
When all of a sudden
I awaken to
The sound of the alarm clock
Love 💕 this poem!
