I re-edited one of the things I did last semester to better reflect what I wanted in the piece. I still like the other version, but I think this is closer to my original imagination.

A Skyward Gaze is the narrative of an enlightenment. Much of the style is similar to or taken from motets and Gregorian chants. In the poem, the speaker walks along the beach in reflection while the tide slowly comes in. The speaker is so lost in thought that the waves go unnoticed; the speaker is then knocked off-balance. In the brief few seconds underwater, which feels like much longer, the speaker comes to a realization and returns to stand, feeling lighter, yet stronger, emotionally. The horizon that was dark before is now a bright and beautiful glimpse into the future.
