Poet’s Bench at Oak Glen Los Rios

This photo was awarded 3rd place in the Redlands Camera Club miscellaneous category, Apprentice Class Winter Digital Competition.  I wrote the poem a couple of years ago.

Poet’s Bench

I wonder if I’ll ever be a poet

And can sit with those greats

Who gave us leaves of grass

To ponder and trees and lakes

And oh yes mountains.

I think I’ll just sit down here

At my own Walden pond and

See what happens.
