Perspective

By Marc Gilbert ¶ Posted in Original Poems ¶ Tagged free verse, poem, poetry ¶ Leave a reply

I saw my shadow in the light of a low sun.
It appeared a great thing
covering miles of grass.
My eyes filled with tears
and I lost myself to wonder.
In the absence of perspective
I thought the ground a mirror.

A Good Place

By Marc Gilbert ¶ Posted in Original Poems ¶ Tagged nature, poem, twitter ¶ Leave a reply

This is a good place.
The ground is cold and puddled,
ice still skins the shady spots,
the sun low, but rising.

Tomorrow maybe,
or a week from now,
I’ll return to this very spot
and find it foreign
if I notice it at all.
