Spring into Spring
I park in the lot at the park.
Grab my camera
and head for the path.
My head is full of ideas
for pictures I will take.
I have a spring in my step
as I notice the changes
that happen in early spring.
I watch a goose sit on its nest
and look forward to what
I may see in May.
This poem was written for Day 8 of the 2023 Poem-A-Day Challenge.
I am a poet and photographer who likes sports, jazz and art inspired by other art. I served in the U.S. Marine Corps during the early 1970's and was assigned to the Computer Sciences School in Quantico, VA. I have published a chapbook of grief poems, I Keep You with Me. My work also has appeared in publications such as Thorny Locust Magazine, core. zine,The Enigmatist, Veterans' Voices and Kansas Time + Place An Anthology of Heartland Poetry. My visual art pieces combine poetry and photographs, and have been most recently displayed at InterUrban ArtHouse, Johnson County Arts & Heritage Center, Buttonwood Art Space, and The Smalter Gallery.
