Those
Ancient
Explorers
Looking beyond
Were exercising
Their curiosity
Wanting to know even more
Than someone told them existed
Because they imagined that something
Was waiting for them, to be discovered

Oh, this is marvelous: “…they imagined that something Was waiting for them, to be discovered…” The heart of an explorer! ❤

I love this poem, Annette. It reminds me of Star Trek: Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before.
