Taking the Waves for Samuel Dylan McDonald on his 23rd Birthday


Taking the Waves

For Samuel Dylan McDonald
on your 23rd Birthday

 

There is no other space               like it

inside the barrel

the green room

 

                                                              it is epic

 

to ride the curve

take the drop

 

                                   for the board to break

                                   an initiation

 

a story to tell

for the rest of your life.

 

 

Gail Hennessy  2016.

 I have tried to suggest the form of the wave in the layout.

    The form worked Gail, and I like the use of surfing vocab. And every wave an epic story!
