Reality Check
reality check:
I'm sitting on the flagstone deck
cloistered by wetland woods
the temperature ~ a comfortable 72
refreshful breezes blow
cheery bird songs scent the air
the sky is blue beyond the clouds up there
I'm sipping Simply lemonade
the hummingbirds sip the syrup I made
my eyes drink in iridescent colours
as my fingers
write this poem

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
