New Deep Rutts

The rutts were deep from constant traffic flow
Then the silence laid back mountain exploded
Spewing forth from that lofty height molten lava___

Soon the rutts were filled to oveflow
Eliminating all those deep rutts
How would this man think again?

All his grooves were wiped out cleaned
All thoughts channels gone
Now only new forbidden territory 

New deep rutts to begin again.....

Amazingly beautiful write. It is great that you are devoting your time still for Poetry, when you should not strain before your surgery. I am extending my good wishes for successful surgery and quick recovery. Love and best wishes always....Ravindra

I was only a kid at the time, but, yes, there was quite a scandal about the Onassis affair, apparently. My mother said it hit the headlines all over the world. I wish I could have heard her sing live. Jack

It's the earth's natural cycle, Sara. All of the things we now view as "natural disasters" helped form the Earth we know today. Quite a profound poem! Love, Carolyn
