The First Step, by Jeff Day
Bound, cold, and alone,
Within the cell I wait,
To find my destiny.
Four years of training done,
The path ahead is straight,
Though scared, my heart is free.
Three raps, a soft echo,
Not one second late,
Two come to walk with me,
And take me to the gate.
Beyond, a vision rests,
Of life, love and tempest,
A cloistered gathering.
Ringing thrice the gong,
No more will I prolong,
The sacred primal chore.
Hark, yonder sir! I hear,
Step in this boat, and fear
No enemy nor foe,
Stay calm now as we row.
And to the isle we pass,
Moored safely, I proclaim,
Intent to join their ranks.
A firm but steady grasp,
To greater heights we aim,
And climb the steepened banks.
A solid slab of rock,
I'm cast down without shame,
And press my head in thanks,
To speak the oath and name,
With fellows of great fame.
