Ecstatic Poetry

 

 
I contemplated taking off 
on a sabbatical to write poems 
dip my pen in the emerald ink 
of Mother Earth
 
Not too far away...
can't neglect household chores 
and piles of dishes....
but where.....? 
my mind tapped its fingers
 
Parks and woodland settings 
offered the tranquility and 
seclusion I craved 
if it weren't for the relentless 
broiling humid heat 
 
Where.... ..with AC.... please....? 
Aha!
Turkey Creek Library!
 
Nestled in a sanctuary of 
towering pine forests 
swampy wetlands and a 
meandering stream 
it's cool, it's quiet, 
it's perfect

Reviewed on August 6, 2024
I love the heat and humidity, but the direct sun bothers me. Why I would seek the shelter of a wooded area down near the swampy wetlands for a late afternoon sojourn contemplating natural poetry.

But the Turkey Creek Library sounds like a wonderful place to go and enjoy the ambience of a wooded wetland while inside with AC and lots to read and contemplate as you draft your poems to the sound of a gurgling stream.
