NPM 2024 - Book Spine Poem 2

For National Poetry Month this year, I am perusing my bookshelves and building book spine poems. This poem was inspired by Cole Brauer, the first American woman to race solo nonstop around the world.

Over and under the waves
water sings blue
trailblazers
sail away
reaching for the moon
The sky's the limit
