Cable Car Ride

Cable Car Ride
for Minyi


Struggling to find the right words,
the cable car seems as
good a metaphor as any:

a fixed destination
reached after crossing different way points,
(we are approaching one now)
not without some bumps along the way.

It seems rather precipitious a drop
over which our little bubble is suspended
but we have trust
in what may seem so thin a thread
steeled, as I am
to take the plunge,
asking the four words.

You say yes.
