​Impression of Marsh Creek Lake by Ed Krizek

8/6/2022

 
Picture

Kayacks and paddleboards glide
across.  Gentle Breeze.  Sunny day.
Children play in the shallows 
screaming about the cold water. 
Pleasant vibes from all.
The lake is a sanctuary
from daily troubles. Content
to sit on the shore. I watch.
Life goes on around me.
While others paddle and glide
sitting in the shade is glorious
and restful.  Perhaps
this feeling is what is meant by
equanimity.   


Ed Krizek holds a BA and MS from University of Pennsylvania, and an MBA and MPH from Columbia University.  For over thirty years Ed has been studying and writing poetry.  He is the author of six books of poetry:  Threshold, Longwood Poems, What Lies Ahead, Swimming With Words, The Pure Land, and This Will Pass All are available on Amazon.com.  Ed writes for the reader who is not necessarily an initiate into the poetry community.  He likes to connect with his readers on a personal level.
