Quiet Water on a Windless Day


Quiet Water on a Windless Day
Ripples may be on the horizon
I know not when!
Am I prepared for rough water
In my little boat?
For I have but one power oar,
when I set out on my boat with
quiet water on a windless day.

I am a retired high school and college professor. The last 10 years of my teaching was as a college professor of literature and writing. I have self-published one book of prayers and meditations and am preparing another book of poetic odes to faith and love. I am truly honored to be welcomed into this group.
