Another Day

  • Hello fellow poets. I am originally from a very small very remote town in the woods of northern Maine.The town had a population of 560 souls.I was brought up( in what some would consider to be) abject poverty.If I was I never knew it. Simply due to the fact that everyone around me was in the same "boat".I have been writing from my teens. I enjoy the woods to this day. I hunt fish and hike whenever possible.And through the years I've learned that there is a God and that I'm not it. "SLIM"

Another Day

Tranquil still,and silent
The sky an azure blue
The morning flowers glisten
There petals damp with dew.

A gental breeze has blossomed
And breaks the sultry air
It holds aloft a butterfly
That seems to linger there.

Squirrels frolic across the lawn
A rabbit takes his time
Sparrows flutter to and fro
As the sun begins its climb.

Flys are buzzing round and round
Aimlessly in flight
As a single cloud drifts by
billowy and white.

Another day has begun
A chance to start anew
How the outcome is percieved
Is greatly up to you.

Mlea, Thank you for taking the time to comment on my poetry. It means a great deal to me and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
