PICTURES AND POEMS

 

By Arthur H. Gunther III

No essays this week, just pictures and the “poetry” that seems to go with each one.

SONG

Woods, solitude,
wind whispering

as nature writes

a melody

in a long,

wonderful breath

apples

APPLES

In their season,

at picking,

the best first

Then the ones

not noticed

but still worthy

The poor ones

gone begging, just
ahead of the drops

Cape Chair

SAND

Beach sand

awaiting impression,

particles of glass

diffused

Until flesh

compresses

Life stamp

before the next

leaves a mark

awakening

AWAKENING

Asleep, dreams

from the mind’s

collected bits

On a journey

of the fanciful

Alarm sounds,

reality returns
