I Am Cast To The Sky Poem by Richard Provencher

I Am Cast To The Sky



Nightfall scans the landscape
brush shimmering
rocky shore a reflection of nature's gleam

a forest at night
never calls it sleeping.

Today's struggle upstream meant
cut to the edge of shore where sharp
would not slice bare feet -

wellness in my life
is a smile I had for her
the return not to be for me
once it was -

coming winter too short
to say goodbye.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Nature is a natural beauty, as life can be. Yet within the grace of wonderful feeling can come something dangerous, and we must overcome these inconveniences, where possible. I have canoed for many years in Ontario around Haliburton Highlands and in Nova Scotia around Economy Lake.
