If

~ E R Kendrich

I have never taken part in a blog challenge before, and never thought that I would, but A Frank Angle sent me a very polite, personal invitation and I thought this poem was appropriate. Thanks for the invite Frank.

 

If

If we could open ourselves for exploration,

to read and decipher like a map,

a foreign country to discover.

Then you might place your feet on fresh soil

and I might walk new pathways.

For a while, travel a road together,

reach a place we recognize.

 

 

Read more answers to the If Challenge in the comments on Frank’s post. Perhaps you’d like to have a go at the challenge too? Details are here.

  2. Cheers to your effort! …. and many thanks for participating!

    I like it!!! I find two things in this poem. First, a challenge to all to travel. To see the world. … but then the twist (well, at least to me) where it shifted from WE to I – the impact of unexpectedly touching someone’s life that one wouldn’t have met without the travel.
