March 23

Wild geese flying over
This morning,
Kitchen gray
In early light.

The geese bring a
Report from eternity.
No news, just rumor.
Still, you listen.

What you know
For certain
Will not get you
As far as Canada.

    Hello Sherry. Good poem of David’s there.

    I was actually looking to get his permission to republish one of his poems in our mag, Flowers & Vortexes, not this poem but from the same book. I’d love to see something of yours as well. I would appreciate it if you would you pass this meassage along to the good doctor.
