Shelter Poem by Amos Greig
Shelter
Sheltered field of pleasant green
The susurrus of distant wind,
Nature gossips
Protests at intrusion,
Between windswept trees,
Belfast, metallic fossils, David and Goliath,
Painthall Studios: the vistas
testaments to urbanized myth
This is my quiet place,
A step away from the world.
Apart and yet a part.
i always say this - mostly all great poets can be judged by how well they can touch you with a short poem. how much of the universe can you cram into 12 lines or so? Kerouac could cram about 1/5 of all existence in about 2 pages (in his novels) ... I always love to find others who have that ability.
