The Mighty Wave

The Mighty Wave 

It all came over me
Like a wave, getting higher and higher
I was riding that crescendo 
Poem after poem after poem 
Flooding out of my brain
With all the energy of that wave 

And then 

Crash

The wave comes tumbling down 
And like that tumbleweed
Blowing across the desert 
Drifting in the vast emptiness 

The poems stopped

And here I sit 
Day after day
Waiting to ride that mighty wave again

Maybe it will never happen 
That’s the beauty of life
We never quite know where it’s going
