These posts are visible with my most recent writing at the top, but the story starts with the first post. The poems have been added more or less as they surfaced and evolved through the process. Thank you for taking some time to explore with me. For more information and/or to schedule a reading contact me at meanderingspublications@gmail.com"> Bio page for Find Maine Writers:

Emergence

(photo by Mardy Bogar)

Emergence

Emerging from behind gentle hills
studded with stately evergreens,
bright with reflected light from
our closest star,
the familiar orb slides upward
through the dusky sky.
Low, opaque clouds threaten to 
obscure the view.
Yet, in truth, they
enhance the majestic scene
as it is appreciated by
human beings waiting 
and watching below.
Like a silvery sand dollar
just below the surface of the salty ocean,
the moon embarks on its journey
above our world 
once again.
