my 330th poetical posting



the poet sits and wonders
amazed that he has
survived this long
dismayed at the
mess he's made

the poet sits and wonders
stirred by the
colors of spring
bemused by the
follies of man

the poet sits and wonders
bewildered by his
encroaching mortality
excited by what
comes next

My goodness....330 poems is quite an accomplishment. This particular one strikes a chord within my own poets' soul though because I await "what's next" with an open mind and heart too. Well done John.
