Kristine O'Connell George - Seagull Coments

[Greg Pincus]

SEAGULL COMMENTS 

Yesterday was—

                                        flap— flap— flap like crazy.

Headwinds from here to there,

Headwinds everywhere.

Yet, today—

                                         glide— soar— glide lazy.

Tailwinds and thermals from there to here —

all I have to do is steer.

Isn't it amazing how Kristine O'Connell George makes you feel a seagull's point of view? Like... I totally believe this is what a seagull would think and say. (And... here's a prompt: write a point of view poem. Maybe it's an animal's point of view... or choose any item, really, or anything that isn't you.)

If you've read any of Kristine O'Connell George's books, of course, you wouldn't be surprised at the skill and fun of the poem here. if you haven't read them... well, no time like the present to be lost in the worlds she creates, I tell ya. (And honestly, every seagull I know thinks you should, too.)
