Forests Can Be Rooted in a Soul

May 1, 2020

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is psychology at 41.

I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com .

A psychological number poem about the need to enrich the imagination through wilderness:

Forests can be rooted in a soul.

Oceans inundate a tidal heart.

Remember to become a rock-ridged bowl,

The amphitheater that contains the whole,

Yet is of some grand peak a tiny part.

One’s time in tame surroundings takes its toll,

Nor can one grasp the grace beyond the goal

Except by practicing the rambler’s art.
