Favorite Quote:
"In Hamilton, Burr spends years waiting for a chair to be offered at the table in 'the room where it happens.' Patience and timing will play a part in your ultimate success for sure. But I found the happiness and consistency I wanted for so long at the exact moment I decided to build my own table and my own chairs." ~ Leslie Odom Jr.

I gather treasure
At my feet
Prying rocks, shells
Beach glass
From the grip of sand
And hold them,
Glittering, in my hands
The hoard
Of a flightless ocean dragon.

I really like this! My favorite lines are "The hoard / Of a flightless ocean dragon"; they're full of imagery. Well done! (PS Thanks for leaving a comment on my poem, "Hourglass"!)
