Dale Gregory Cozart Poet Free verse

The Round Garden

The cerulean river
veers its imperfect bights
through unbending 
rigidity of fixed earth.
My life's goal
as a square flower
of florid constancy
is still to thrive
in porcelain conformity
of a round garden.

Agnes Krampe June 17, 2018 at 4:39 PM Gorgeous image, Dale, and I like the paradoxical nature of the square thing being the flower. Dale Gregory Cozart June 17, 2018 at 4:47 PM Thank you, Agnes.
