The Mighty Thor Of Algo. Park Iii Poem by Geoff Warden

The Mighty Thor Of Algo. Park Iii

Rating: 5.0


My brother, Canis Lupus be,
Teaching skills of great aware,
Has stride in times uncertain,
Feast or famine, not a care.

Mighty hunter, ol' timber wolf,
As he teaches law of land,
His principals, strong loyalty,
Mother nature at his command.

A lonewolf, his nickname be,
Yet example, I follow upon,
Seen howling at the moon,
My brother and I, unison.

Sir Lupus stalks the hills,
I, the valleys so low,
Yet I have learnt the peace,
My brother always did know.

Francesca is right you have rendered an atmosphere in this series of poems. I have visited and camped at Algonquin Park, canoeing the rivers and lakes. Thank you for bringing those memories up for me again. Excellent, Geoff. All the best, Diane

Some poems conjure up a series of definite pictures and others leave me with a 'feeling', an 'atmosphere'. Your series is in the latter category. Geoff, I have just read all three parts and am left with a feeling of peace, being at one with nature, and a sense of spirituality. A wonderfully primeval piece of writing. And I see that I was on the right track (if you'll pardon the pun) about which path you'd take. Love, Fran xx

Quite th' accomplishment, my good friend....This series has been inspiring & i think in general, that poets that can tell a long tale, should think about doing a series, rather than taking a story that has a lot of specifics that the reader should be made aware of, and then stuffing it all into a 20-30 line poem...Great Job, GooD sIR!
