The Iceburg

I think that I will learn another language just because of the sound of the words That would be the only purpose just for the wonderful sound of that language I think that I will learn the species of every bird not just those in Georgia I think that I will have my hours of meditation each__ every day Meditation to relax mind__ to be filled with a new story let the river flow By digging hard maybe I could deflect the river onto another path A path of learning and of growing into very different stronger person Then that river that runs rapid after a rain overflowing its banks__ideas Imaginary things and __problems or maybe I could channel it to work To operate a grits mill _ power electric plant serving community Maybe it will be diverted over stones, pebbles__even boulders hard places Those places that it really wants to refuse to enter This river will run until its course reaches an unpassable place__locked in And not a chance to change__then and only then I will just have to blast to free Ideas__dynamite thoughts__non-conventional__like what happens if a huge Iceburg turns loose and floats toward the US

you can reveal all of what you are through your poetry more than anything, because others who don't understand might be confused.i like how this river wants to open a new path, of learning, discovering & growing(: sounds like a wonderful river! -Always&Forever Lynette
