I had the feeling
I had been lost at sea
just for a few weeks
.
if weeks count as
years having no sweet
food or drink just
.
overcoming the waves
withstand the wind patience
unfolded under the sun
.
one morning – passing by
a mirror – not able to
recognize myself
.
.
Fantastic! Dusty warm California dream.

Being lost real or imagined can be dangerous or an opportunity for new discoveries.
Happy New Year Anna.

Dear Anna,
I really enjoy reading your poems. They’re easy to read and comprehend.
This poem, for instance, reminds me of Tom Hank’s movie – Cast Away.
Tempestuous experiences do change us. We go through them and never come out the same.
Nicely done.
