    To let go

     To let go

    It was a strong stormy current,
    A heartless river dragging me away!

    First I fought against it
    But in a short time I realized
    That in order to win, I had to lose...

    And so I let myself go
    Pushing subliminally in an angle
    Until arriving at the other margin a mile later.
    Suddenly I grabbed  a broken tree branch
    Pushing myself to safety.

    I sat there at a rock
    Hearing the impartial waters
    And when I finally opened my eyes
    I smiled and thanked the heavens
    For such moment of bliss!

    Great philosophy for life. You not only arrived safely but what a ride! Nicely though out and flows well.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
