Reflections

Ferry on the river; ‘Copter in the sky. Bicycles and scooters (Some with bells!) all pass me by. Joggers pound the pavement; Walkers simply stroll. Benches are deserted. (Recent raindrops took a toll.) Still, I’m out here sitting, Checking out the scene, Feeling not quite up or down But somewhere in between. As my trusty pencil Jots each thought upon a line, It helps record reflections Found within this mind of mine.

A pleasing and believable picture is presented to us in this poem, Ilene; and, it is one that gives us insight into the able poet who wrote it. I enjoyed your poem.
