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. Comments are closed.
