Jordan Pond

Jordan Pond - Acadia National Park

 

Walking the waters of the Jordan
visiting another place and time
balancing the narrow plank of  duality
a drifting dream, shifting reality

scaling the boulders blocking my path
avoiding the river of nature's aftermath
seeking the secrets of the master teacher
in the philosophy of love, I am a believer

reaching a sandy beach, resting weary feet
contemplating where sky and water meet
on a hot day, might a dunk, offer redemption
can the tears of Jordan, change my perception

the journey is not yet complete, a sonnet of love
whispering verses from the mountains above

Jordan Pond - Acadia National Park



Author's Note:  Recently I took the three
mile trek around Jordan Pond. Walking
planks, scaling rocks to find myself on
a small beach of reflection.

Today, I woke up with nature whispering in my ear. 

Thank you for visiting

Sadly, today the Jordan River in many
areas is just a trickle of what it used to be.
Jordan Pond was a walk of reflection.
