Friday Poem #1

Play5

I decided to attempt a poetry post series. I’ve tried to write poetry in the past, but I’ve never considered it my strength. However, I’ve been told that my prose is sometimes poetic. I’m not sure I agree, but I’ll take the compliment! Poetry will be a good exercise in being concise and looking at things in a new way… I’m good at concise, but I tend more toward direct and business-like rather than creative and poetic.

I won’t pretend these are wonderful, so if you’re not enthralled, please just ignore the series and come back for my other posts. Also, I took this picture and edited it a few years ago. I am not a fantastic photographer, but it was fun.

A little water
falling clear and brighter still
than moonlight beyond
