Legend

by Chris Sorrenti


     It's never too late to be who you might have been
     --George Eliot



Let us heave ho
and raise the spirit mizzen
set sail for that vision swept shore
where no dyke of doubt
can hold back our rainbow flood
allow inspiration to soar
direct its energy
into serious thought

A time to let go of childish things
even if they brought us joy in the past
our little secret
it’s for but a short while
as once again
we are titans
with a cause

Let us expand then
our brave new chests
to propel this vehicle
as modern day Thors
we will swing our hammer
unleash success’ thunderstorm
weld our names into history
and once and for all
become
the stuff of legend

Author's Note: Not one of my best pieces, but a nice rallying cry to go the next step, and complete the process, though it’s arguable if the process is ever really complete.
