Poetry Contest 2007

[Jeff Aitken]

pacific coast glowing gray in fog.
sea lions shout their lazy tales.
and here along the moist forest trail

el dorado appears: a small grove of pine
dripping with gold. paper thin flakes,
tarnished with black: a thousand gently resting

butterflies. we witness this treasure
because they have followed the
law of two wings for a thousand miles.



ok, i sent a version of this in a previous contest. but i'm way too frazzled 
to write a whole new one! i love the theme this time, and this poem came to 
mind.
