Staying Near The Water

'Staying near the Water' is back to the basics. Simple from the gut writings about the common. Love, the fear of love, water's dire cry help, and much more are approached in 'Staying Near the Water'.

Mikayla (Pleasant Shade, Tennessee post office)

Sensibilities of society

Up Saturday dawning

When men feel most sorry

A woman is busy

Not waiting, but simply...

Most beautiful I've seen all morning.

En route peeked grass and trees,

On the forest floor there was a leaf.

None of these stopped

What they were doing to look at me.

Parcel-not even ready,

A hurried spring bloom

Mikayla accepted patiently.

The 'Staying Near The Water' collection is great for exercising your reading muscle. With brief and succinct poems and elegies. Become familiar with and practice creating in the beautiful tradition of tanka 5-7-5-7-7 and haiku 5-7-5 syllable rhythms.
