Stump

Near the pink-tiled rim of the pond,
opposite the sometimes cascade over scum-covered rock,
the tree stump sits on its side, half-submerged
and catching the orange light along its crags and splits
as, in the frosted spring dawn, students pass by
lost in their thoughts.

    This piece reminds me of Lord Alfred Tennyson's work; it has a metaphysical demeanor. Beautifully executed.
