Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Feel the Wind Sigh

Where's the smog
   And the pollution
Only noise, the frogs
   No gangland executions

Millions of stars in the sky
   Nights crisp, fresh and cool
I can feel the wind sigh
   Nature -- not man -- rules

Lack of excitement or buzz?
   -- Doesn't bother me
I've fled Los Angeles
   For God's country

Tameko Barnette August 26, 2019 at 5:07 PM I love this one because of the focus on nature, one of my biggest inspirations. I love the line "nature -- not man rules." Indeed. Gershon Wolf August 26, 2019 at 6:19 PM It's like your 'symphony of breezes' in your fine poem that I just read! Thanks, Tameko! :) gw

Susan Ashley August 25, 2019 at 7:47 PM I love living in God's country in my little corner of South Coast, Mass., and I love the spirit of your inspiring poem, Gershon. I'll take Nature over city life all day, all the time. Wonderfully penned, my friend. Warmest wishes always.. ~Susan Susan Ashley August 25, 2019 at 8:41 PM oh yes, Dartmouth is beautiful as is Wesport - ever go to Horseneck Beach? Great waves from the Atlantic for body surfing, I spent all my summer days there (well, as many as possible) while growing up :) Gershon Wolf August 25, 2019 at 8:37 PM Ah, yes! South Coast is nice, as is much of Mass. (I went to Dartmouth from 1968-1972, so I was in your state quite often). Thank you, as always, for your warm, inspirational comments, Susan. :) gw

Caren Krutsinger August 25, 2019 at 6:49 AM I am in the throes of God's country myself, and love the fireflies and songbirds of the country, but you have to admit the lights in L.A. are gorgeous! Gershon Wolf August 25, 2019 at 12:23 PM I'll take the stars over L.A's lights anytime. :) gw

Arturo Michael August 25, 2019 at 5:25 AM Good...Soon Los Angeles may be coming to you...Enjoy it while you can... Gershon Wolf August 25, 2019 at 12:23 PM I don't know; I hope there's some kind of limit to urban sprawl. Maybe I'm naïve...

Brandy Nicole August 24, 2019 at 10:56 PM I love the wind, the clouds and moments that caress the sky. Mankind will never remove the calm that holds the day. God is still in control. Nature will always be. :) Brandy Gershon Wolf August 25, 2019 at 12:22 PM So true. All we have to do is look up to realize how insignificant we are... Thanks for visiting my site, Brandy. ~ Gershon

Lindsay Laurie August 24, 2019 at 10:49 PM G'day Gershon … nature will always win the war for survival. Mankind better hurry up and acknowledge this - thank you Gershon - Lindsay Gershon Wolf August 25, 2019 at 12:21 PM Absolutely right, Lindsay. The world will keep turning long after man is gone. ~ gw
