Sack the sat nav

 

Sack the sat nav

 

Magnetic resonances

Emanations from the core

Flock across the horizon

Free from the pull of earth

Wheel through the stratosphere

Spiralling ever higher, ever higher

Skimming the magnetosphere

Falling, falling, free-fall

Homeward bound

Ever homeward bound

Like a compass seeking true north

Like a pigeon to it's roost

Homing instinct

Homing in on you

Sack the sat nav

Sack the map

You are mapped

In the stars

Across the heavens

Ever

Always

True north of me

Destiny

Great poem, I especially like the title, it implies something else but as the poem unfolds we are shown a whole new world

Thanks for the feedback Ieuan, fab celtic name!
Dizzying yes, dizzying as the entire experience of 'falling..'
I'm off to read you now and looking forward to it.

Be cool,
Moira

I loved this, soaring poem (no pun intended) and some really cool metaphors. I felt a bit dizzy after reading it though :)

Hello Moira

Your poem is beautiful! The metaphoric lines are superb. It is mysterious and dreamy and at the same time excellent and creative wraps about DESTINY... Loved to read your write-Awesome!


Thank you,
