Robert W. Kimsey, Georgia Poet

I recently met Robert W. Kimsey, a poet who takes much of his inspiration from the Blue Ridge Mountains of Georgia where he lives in a log cabin and enjoys birding and fly-fishing.

Robert W. Kimsey

Here are two poems by Robert W. Kimsey. You can read more at his blog Writing on the Ridge.




Coyote

Shifty eyed rascal
Looking over your shoulder
Your reputation follows

Keeps getting closer
I hear you crying at night
Lamenting your shameful life

 

 

 

Storm

Aspen leaves turn up
Elk move to sheltered valley
Wind screams through high pine branches

The storm closes in
A wolf pounding at the door
I dream of you beside me
