I made this attempt at a walrus 2 weeks ago and forgot to post it while we were talking about fairy walrus.

Misunderstood
Hanging by a thread
Gathering impressions
Cast about by ill guided perceptions
Significance a torn down illusion
Needle and filament brought forth
In your need to revamp eloquent
What you consider mutilated distortions
Fragmented specimens
Severed from the host's core
Rupturing each artery
Till you distinguish the complication
Affected puzzle of contradictions
Soft supple words convolute
Obstacles ridden in anamorphic aggregation
Apocalypse of the four horsemen
Deeply rooted to my soulful motivations
Stitches begin roughly changing
Inch by inch you institute a formulation
To repair what you decry as afflictions
Pieces of my life worth noting
Only in the abstract of my humiliations
Deleting each overture crafted
By the sabotaged reality
You insinuate is my legitimate contagion
Rearranging in misguided reconstruction
Strength of my survivor attitude
Presumed a regrettable defective
Calamitous sewing begins imposturous
Modifying my authentic cognizance
Till what remains once accomplished
Is a skeleton of disregarded innocence

A gosling learning the ropes. The geese in Calgary are far less aggressive than the ones in Ontario. Some mountain-bikers rolled right by them, less than 2 feet away, and the parents didn’t give chase.

Dearly Departed
Saddened
For a blessed soul
Who has left our realm
For the pearly gates of heaven
Ushering in his gracious nature
Giving credence to all he bestowed
While amongst our presence
Embolden in each generation
He impressed his knowledge
Of Earth's natural substances
Upon eager young minds
He left his indelible footprint
Legacy of enhanced education
Allowing a multitude of fascinated youth
To engage in exploration
Standing on this planet's
Magnificent landscapes
Digging deep
Feeling the magnitude of our lives
Amongst the beauty of nature's cadence
Hoping we can begin to leave behind
Treasures of enlightened wisdom
That he gave us to enrich our authentic selves
In this journey to trapeze
Into higher versions of understanding
While keeping our feet firmly planted
In the richness of our unique creation
Reaching for the framework of being
Sensitive to a time that is fleeting
Seeing each other again
Outside the realm of tangibility
Holding close our cherished memories
Saying goodbye by celebrating
An exceptional scholar
Who imparted his insight
Freeing the narrow scope
To appreciate God's universe
In serene glorious wonders
I wrote this last month to honor my favorite teacher who recently passed away. I feel every child should have a teacher that not only imparts knowledge but who listens to each child's voice, allows a creative light, gives a imagination free of slight, a wondrous beginning on their journey into life. He saw us and reached out a hand to guide us. I lived all over growing up but where he taught us was a place few get to grow up, a tightly bonded community on a small naval base in the Caribbean called Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Thank you Mr. Rohe.
