Running -
out the back door
across the yard
through the cornfield
down the banks of the ravine
past stinging nettles.
* * *
Down, down to the creek,
and the great, gray rock
that formed an island
in the trickling water.
* * *
Sitting alone,
on the rough stone,
enveloped by the cool, green stillness
of my sanctuary.

Memories – ten years old

Finding words that rhyme with “at”
(The fat cat sat on the mat.
The rat ate my flat hat.)
Ten year old me,
perched in a tree.
Writing poetry.
