Earthen Circle 2 The Search Continues
Searching Google Earth
for something I remember
eyes traveling down Mule Shed Lane
to Bogey Mill Road which disappears
often in fence-line overgrowth
following the long green serpent
of Silver Creek through overhanging canopy
along the way, I find scatters of stones
but not the ones lodged in memory
vast fields and many treed hills belie
the nearness of suburbia
reaching the Kentucky River
and looking over into Garrard
I know I have gone too far.

Lovely. I connect very deeply to this.
Thank you. I appreciate you words
I love “the long green serpent of Silver Creek.” I’m right there in that magic place.
thank you
I love this poem. I was immediately drawn into the landscape and along the creek with you. Knowing it was via G.Earth had me floating above the ground, which gives this poem a lovely feel.
thank you.
Love the use of place names!
