Your First Steps
Once a little girl,
Grown up a lost young woman;
Not alone for long.
.o.
Long ago, you remembered,
But now you are just waiting...
.o.
Adventure awaits!
Tell yourself: I can do this.
This is the Falcon?
.o.
Forward: A dangerous path.
But too late, you can't go back.
.o.
Jedi honor code:
Legacy uncontested.
The only right path.
.o.
One you love, gone forever;
Vengeance raging in the night.
.o.
A pull to the Dark,
Promising all desires.
Listen to the Force.
.o.
Voices speaking across time,
Of direction and promise.
.o.
Seeking a teacher,
Know your true path lies ahead:
A little less lost.
.o.
Bringing balance to the Force,
By walking the line between.
A/N — This poem is structured like a Renga poem (except it's not collaborative). Renga poems are structured in a repetitive haiku / couplet format. So the first stanza is three lines, with the first line having 5 syllables, the second having 7, and the third containing 5 again. The second stanza is two lines with 7 syllables each. Then it repeats until the end of the poem.
