I stand at the edge of a canyon wide Looking out over the tree-lined gorge Two miles at least to the other side Unless one chooses the river to forge, Once was a tedious journey to cross We always planned to take a full day Now, it’s twenty minutes to crisscross Giving us plenty of time in town to play, A structural marvel,...

I saw a gorge, a remote vision from distant, far far away from the surface, how sharp, how precipitous, how deep! A  singular, unsurpassed, cavernous  cleft; a crevice among two gigantic hills, how intense and steep! The rocky walls of the mountains though withering, canopying the remote sight from the brink of the rugged cliffs. The highland though barren, is...

Vibrant chroma dots the mountains and valleys; we hike the Red River gorge, taking in it’s majestic pigmentation; leaves of October crunch beneath booted feet. We take our journey with care, as the cliffs can be deadly in an instant; still, the crisp Kentucky mountain air is rejuvenating to lungs, too long in the city’s smog. I stop at the edge of...

Poetics Poem, Red River Gorge, KY I traipse the course of a forking, rambling stream Barefoot from the rounded top of one small boulder To another, the slashing strikes of cold water Startling my every careful leap, place to place, Landing with deep, short gasps, yet wordless In an utter joy of intense sensation over sun-sprinkled Spots so bright against the...

A track leads through a gully in the bushland Following the least line of resistance in a haphazard plan The kookaburras and the magpies squawk happily away The sun on my back makes me want to stay Walking to the rock face broken on the gorge face Two wallabies look our way and away they race A creek flows through glistening...

The Cliffs and The Gorge. Chance upon chance-- lover to lover, The truest love discarded—lost romance, Never either again found another Two seek the self-same love forever asunder The hollow hearts hath much pain, Never again, never again, to replace the crossed-star love flame And in the weening half-full hearts replaced, A great black chasm carved worn from the scars...

All yours, God said, eyes sweeping Over an expanse of lush greenery across A wide, deep gorge. A rolling carpet Of lotus and daffodils in the shade Of hillocks--juts of jumbled winking rocks. All mine! ... Across this gorge! I mumbled. How? ... I should need some help! Reason said, I can't help. Wisdom said, Neither can I. Eyes squinted....

Grand Canyon and Giant Gorge Met nature who was trying to forge A giant, great, gargantuan gorge Which to do did take many years And raindrops that appeared like tears. Water ran continuously and rampantly As if sounds of music in a symphony Each instrument with a sound of its own Might be stringed or by one that was blown. When I hear...

Partnachklamme The most beautiful place Above the Bavarian resort town of Garmisch-Partenkirchen, There winds a country road which leads to the Partnach gorge. Hikers are passed by less hearty tourists transported in hay wagons. On the left side of the road, a river can be spotted through the lindens. The river water looks like it was drawn with aquamarine pastels, Having been...
