Drifting

drifting away
like the foam of the sea
is the old 
unfinished year
of elementry school
it bubbles up
like the water in the ocean
spitting out memories
and good times
those moments
did not go down in vain
they bring smiles
even now
during this...
challenging
time

but drifting closer
is a fresh start
new ideas
new moments
that will bubble up
and make me smile
like the waves of the water
we have to fall down
before we rise up

    from stray branches and walking
    throughout the woods, balking
    at the idea
    of no path

    water rests on skin
