Springboard Diving (Part 2). Comments?
SPRINGBOARD DIVING (PART 2)
Conquering fear
Platform's ascent
Confidence quaked
Emotions amess
Past failure laments
Butterflys queer
Never content
Aiming my zeal
Surrendering thought
Accepting fate
Ego doth pull
Leap of faith
Airborne aloft
Body's display
Vision blurred
Twisting away
Tail would help
Like balanced cat
Always to land
Feet first, not back
Lifelong wishes
Soar like the birds
Fulfilling passions
To fly are my words.
Conquering fear
Found secret door
Trust be the knob
Turning, the core
This is part rewrite, part Part 2. It contains a lot of elements from Part 1 but in a shorter, more immediate style.
Like I said before, let's forget winter, skip spring and go right to Summer!
Bingo, Ma!
Both these poems are about using Trust to conquer Fear and Failure, and open the doors to Success.
Diving drives home that lesson real quick.

Trust be the knob,
turning, the core!
That's right, ya gotta walk through that door to life.
I really, really enjoyed both parts 1 and 2.
Very cleverly done, great metaphor.

There are some fears that cannot be conquered and for me diving is one.
I have left home and country, and done anything I put my mind to so I am not scared of anything.. but the fears that I cannot control have no knob , no handle and the core of my being will not allow me to go there.
Nice poem anyway..
We will conquer what we are able..
I like todays write much better than yesterdays, smoother.

I really like this.I can't help but noticing you set our trying NOT to rhyme and then it grabbed you by the wrist and finally took control. It was a good fight. AND it surely bounced like a springboard....good one Ice! Let your sun shine for us....you little piece of Summer you! Cute Speedos handsome…
