Guided
Written for Randy Baker’s Prompted #5 Challenge
Navigating grace
Far from home.
In uncharted quietude,
beneath broken clouds
and yesterday’s stars
already dead
.
The wild sea canvas
Glorious.
Waves wake the bleak horizon,
guided by the breeze
and salty glow of
isolation
.
Fragrant lands beckon
Free of time.
The steady sun charming,
wisps of passing light
blessing tomorrow’s
destinations

You Think I Am Broken
Introduction This is inspired by my situation on Vocal, the Bouke de Vries work and the Screaming Trees song. I know that for many others, they would have walked away from Vocal, but I am taking it as a challenge. I get the feeling that Vocal moderators and others don't want me here (just my imposter syndrome paranoia), but I know a lot of people do, and obviously, some on Vocal do value me, so I will not be giving up.

Exquisitely written and loved it!!!1❤️❤️💕
Chills! Gorgeous work!
This is incredibly beautiful. "Navigating grace Far from home." Such a beautiful line that makes me wonder, are you still far from home?
So lush and visual, and so beautifully crafted. Loved your poem!
So many words in just a few lines! It flowed so well and had stunning imagery!
I love the nostalgia in every line, I think wisps is such a short and sweet way of introducing words. The words of the challenge calls for isolation in capturing the depth of it all. You did a splendid job.
Navigating grace. What a beautiful thought. As always, a spectacular entry
Whoaaaaa 30 words!! That's so freaking awesomeeee! Loved your beautifully penned poem so much!
nice :)
