Prompt: “Drifting.” — suggested by Lexi

Drifting alone
Across an endless sea
Waves crashing
Salt spraying

Drifting alone
Across a dark sky
Wind whistling
Branches waving

Drifting alone
Through a stormy night
Thunder crashing
Moon scowling

Drifting alone
Through a dried-up day
Sand crumbling
Sun smiling

Drifting alone
Toward something
That’s drifting alone
Toward something

Drifting together
Across a sea and sky
Through a night and day
Together

Final Comments: This felt like a poetic prompt. I have no idea how to write poetry, but I had fun trying!
