Alan Perry's 'New Directions': A Journey of Change and Discovery 🌅

A storm-tossed night <br />and this morning <br />I helped you shift the bed. <br /> <br />You wanted to view <br />new latitudes: the far <br />peninsula, the lighthouse light. <br /> <br />So tonight <br />our pillows will have <br />fresh points of reference: <br /> <br />no frenzied tree <br />no harbour mouth <br />no rooftops like causeways <br />down to the deep <br /> <br />Crossing new bars <br />on our raft of sleep <br />we will dream <br />from north to south <br /> <br />and though our ship be holed <br />our canvas lost <br />Love take its bearings <br />from new sets of stars<br /><br />Alan Perry<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/new-directions/
