Climb


 

Climb

Set your sights high
and get on board.
There will be turbulent days
so enjoy the smooth rides.
Headwinds will impede your progress,
but tailwinds will help you make up time.
You will meet others with similar flight plans.
Find ways to help each other climb.

Choppy Water


Choppy Water

When the water is choppy,
I look for a sign of peace.
A glimpse of natural beauty
steadies me even though
the boat is still rocking.

Power Up


Power Up

Focus the power
to provide
enough thrust.
Keep climbing
through the
cloud ceiling
until it be-
comes a floor.
Maintain cruis-
ing altitude.
Be prepared for
turbulence, but
continue to soar.

Rough Waters


Rough Waters

The water is
in motion.
It swirls around.
Makes waves that rock
everything that
tries to ride them.
There is no sign
it will calm down.
Can you handle
the turbulence?

The Descent


The Descent

Come down
through the clouds,
encased in hazy white.

The ride may shake you,
shift you from side-to-side,
drop you until you rise.

When you emerge from
the vapory cocoon, you
will see the world
as you know it
awaiting your return.

Prepared for Landing


Prepared for Landing

Seat belt buckled.
Seat back and tray upright.
Trash discarded.
 Carry-on under the
the seat in front of you. 
 The ground got closer.
 The wheels met the land.
You reached your final destination,
and the turbulence began.

Thanks to Kasie Whitener for this week's Wordsmith Studio Creative Prompt-Preparation. Are you prepared? If so, for what? Let us know in the comments on the blog post.
