I Always Like It Cool Poem by RIC BASTASA

simmering, gliding, and
sliding, these kinds of figures
of white herons, and
hawks, and
even gray fish on stones
beneath the
shallow sea
amaze me, i am silenced
by their beauty, and
trying to write about
them is always a disappointment

reading the lines
i am at a loss, i am less of what you
are, and my literary journey
has not even
begun

at any rate, it
really depends on how i see it
and how you see
it too, i like just being what i am
and that is the biggest
win.
