Poet Against The Grain In The Boondocks Of The Southern Peloponnese

Over your head perhaps but 
Then again never entirely 
Out of your element, 
 
This singular cleansing 
Clear blue sky and that 
Uncompromising view 
 
Unobstructed by the ubiquitous 
Chatter of pedestrian clutter you 
Like to think now safely behind you.

  1. Marvelous poem about the sky and one's self, one's hopes and realizations. Read aloud it is rich in sound and music (fine rhymes and off-rhymes), and the line breaks work to create its rhythm that concludes perfectly with the last word. The poet completely in his element!

  2. And the critical reader, I might add. :) (Thanks again, John.)
