As some of you know I am working on a second book of poetry which will be titled Breath of the Bayou. It is subtitled 'Reflections in Verse'. This piece is the final piece of poetry to be placed into this book. It is a project I am very proud of!

Reflections


In quiet musing I stand
at water's edge, breathing
deeply of its musty scent, its pungent
expression of life and death. This
is my home, my heritage, my rippled
comfort in times of need. It is who I am
and it pulses though me as blood in
a vein. It feeds my soul and quenches
my thirsty spirit.  It is my sunrise of new
beginnings and my sunset slipping
into the next lifetime. It is a song of
mystery and a portrait of revealed
secrets.  It is my reflection in verse.
It is my destiny. It is my bayou.

It is nice when we have a place such as this to go to and just lay back and for a few minutes try and get your balance.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
