Inspired by Eugenia’s Weekly Prompt – Jubilant
as we weave towards our end
rushing insanely
the bends slow us down
moments of floating
pleasurable and relaxing
harnessing our strength
the undertow
at times
sucking us down
yet jubilant moments
keep us bobbing
on the river of life
time trickles to near stop
and the river bed dries to dust
as we weave towards our end
Lovely well-constructed poetry I love the line about jubilant moments. 🙂❤👩🦰
