Go

Go run your hand through
the pine trees, my boy
Go pour the sea through your toes
Go smell the breath of
the desert oasis
Or make a friend of a rose

Take several stars from
the nighttime sky
And let them explode in your hand
Go taste the moon before
it grows up
And then you will understand

Travis, these are wonderful poems. I loved your zany songs, and now love your zinging poems! Keep it up!

Philip, glad you saw my poetry. Yes, I'm not playing guitar much any more. I'm going to get one this summer.

Thanks for leaving me a comment.

I like this poem, Travis, but it feels like it's just the beginning of the poem. Is there more Go?
