A Gosling's Chronicle
by Joel L Young → (All Poetry by Joel L Young)

He's no Jonathan Livingston Seagull
but his Grandmother knows him well.

He's a goose and a young gander
surviving his first week in spring
learning to fly and living by his own will

Still, he has much to learn
his wings gossamer thin and pale
struggling, striving, stricken

weak, experiencing different waters
it's a week he'll always remember.

. Joel L Young 2002
