Your Move

Toe dipped in the sea  
now up to your knees  
feel the salty spray  
beckon to take you away  
pulse quickens  
complete immersion poised  
self-doubt, anxiety, fear  
down-shift free will  
to a practical gear  
from horizon pregnant with possibility  
to resignations shore return  
merely refreshing stagnant reality  
disdainfully gazing at spectator fence  
safe, noncommittal perching place  
passion’s wind billows, slaps your face  
fills the restless soul like a sail  
forcing change from doldrumic course  
deaf to sensibility screaming AVAST!  
diving into the oceans roil at last  
drowning all inhibiting, paralytic doubt  
tossing charts to tedious, safe passage out  
courageously opting instead  
to let adventure-bound current prevail

Author's Note
As a chronic fence-sitter this is my attempt to enthuse myself to take more risks, live with more passion.
