Musings on Life, Love, and Linguine-Poetry & Writing
Uncertainty
The future arrives just as water
Rushes through the fingers of time
While I’m sitting on the edge of my life
Watching and waiting
Searching for some little sign,
Hoping and praying
That I’ll ride these waves, emerge unscathed
Cherishing this life I am given.
Or will I simply vanish in a misty haze of uncertainty?

The line I chose to use of Kerry’s is: ‘The future arrives just as water’

Catch the wave and ride, my friend! It’s either sink or swim – and you seem to have a lot of try in you 🙂

Your second line turns Kerry’;s into a wonderful new metaphor … and you extend it masterfully. The line break, extra length and slight change of tone at the conclusion are perfect.
