True north

Posted byPhillip Knight ScottPosted inPoemsTags:, , ,

My compass broke
in the fall
but I was too proud
to admit I could
no longer find north.

It took you pointing
me in
the right direction
before I could look up
and see stars.

I can navigate any
choppy seas
with you sitting
co-pilot so I never
lose my way.

My name is Phillip. I live in North Carolina with my wife of 12 years and 5-year-old son. I am a Tar Heel born and bred and watch every Yankees game I can. I'm still searching for my own TARDIS. My first novel, "The Alien in the Backseat," is available now! https://amzn.to/3oVCG77
