Richard Is a Restless Dreamer

July 17, 2020

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is politics in honor of Bastille Day, or the national holiday of France, which is celebrated on July 14th.

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

A political name poem about a scientist whose skills are devoted to the practical realization of his dreams:

Richard is a restless dreamer,
Idealist with a practical bent,
Careful carer, benevolent schemer,
Heart and mind with one intent,
A skilled, professional redeemer,
Reason to love’s frontiers sent,
Delivering grace with science blent.
