The Plunge In

I have said “yes”
To something
I cannot completely yet fathom,
The pieces have not all come in to place,
Come in to view,
Fear of the unknown
Keeps me at an edge,
And yet warm comfort of hope and good will eases me into the bathwater of mysterious depths,
There has to be something good,
Out of something so right
I tell myself,
As I hold my breath
Preparing for the plunge in

One thought on “The Plunge In

  1. Taking the plunge ……. yes, not so long ago when I was nearer to retiring than starting work I found myself being pulled out of the chair in my office by a young playwright who had decided I should audition for a major part in her latest work. Taking the plunge turned out to be just what I needed to start my writing again and to promote poetry readings. Yes, I did accept the part in the play.
