A triangular fin Slices through the surface ... Menacing. Bathers run in fear Sensing danger near. Panic ensues. Mothers grab their children and run. The end of a day of such fun. Then up through the roiling froth Pokes a snout. A dolphin looks about. What’s all the fuss? There’s [...]

2010-01-20T18:17:57-05:00January 20th, 2010|

Poem #176

2010-01-12T18:27:04-05:00January 12th, 2010|

Well, friends, I just write down what I hear. Today's is a strange one. I've said it before: I'm no poet, so this one's open for interpretation... (Some of you will recognize this voice) Creep, creep, like the vine Slowly crawling back in time… Hark! Who goes there? Who’s that [...]
