My poem that I wrote 2 years ago “Tall Ship, An Encore” is up on ‘Go Dog Go Cafe’,… ironically my words seem very poignant, during our current circumstances
My poem “Tall Ships, An Encore” appears in the published book, Geelong Writers Anthology, Writeabout-Two, 2019 edition
Tall Ships, An Encore
Fellow passengers, stay calm, we’re still afloat
I must moor this old sinking boat
We’ll then all alight
Walk the plank tonight
Venture ashore
Continue to explore
Search the empty stores
Behind every closed door
Under creaky floors
Inside living pores
I’m ready for the chore
I need to know more
Discover the final score
Before I’m too old and poor
Let me go, let me soar
Fly me to my encore
