Today, I would like to present a guest on my blog. Russ Kelly is my third favorite poet, after Walt Whitman and William Butler Yeats, and he has kindly given me permission to share his latest poem with all of you. I hope you enjoy it as much as I.
Water that smokes
Falls of spring
Falls of power
Falls of silk
Falls of Paterson.
Wheels of power
Wheels of rail
Turning turning
Wheels in time.
Bricks of muscle
Bricks of sweat
Bricks of clay
Bricks to build
Looms of history.
Water to smoke
Falls to wheel
