He wears his solitude
Like a life vest
Impervious to judgment
Of eyes that pry
And thoughts delving
Deeper than the waters
That he navigates
Alone
Night falls
And he is safe in its darkness
Taking his cue from the moonlight
As it rises
Reflecting on the surface
Leaving the water more viscous
Bearing the weight of his quiet contemplation
His vessel floats on
Poem inspired by George Inness’ Moonrise

Thanks so much Wayne- that is amazing feedback. To move a reader or speak their unspoken words is what I hope to achieve. Keep sailing in the moonlight toward the brightness of a new day 😊
I’m going to tidy up my inbox and stop alerts cause at the moment it is really hard for me to find a message amongst all the wp alerts. I usually read on the reader, so no point having 100 alerts a day! And then I’ll email you about hopper!
