Day Four_ Journey

* Today, write a poem about a journey. You could channel your excitement about a trip you’re about to embark on (or just returned from), comment on the mental progress you witnessed someone make, or focus on the struggles, pleasures, and extreme emotions that travel can bring about.
* Enhance your poem with a simile if you’d like — it’s a common poetic device that uses words like “as” or “like” to show similarity between two unconnected concepts.

“Never go on trips with anyone you do not love” Ernest Hemingway

A Journey to the Island 

The long trip survived
We had finally arrived

For long the journey
Had been planned
Sometimes with moods of stormy
With many a doors slammed

But now, as I am sitting
A view in front of me fitting
My mood is calmer than the sea
And intentions anything but flee

We had finally arrived
