THE MOOSE

THE MOOSE

A Poem by Brian Kraklau

The moose is quite a majestic creature, standing so tall with its antlers reaching to the sky, being on all fours, standing, silent, watching, listinging, waiting, will time erase this creatures existance, or will it enlighten the footsteps taken in its journey, the wisdom of this creature has been seen once before, no man could understand this creature in any way, i know this for i am a man, but it also depends of what definition, you use these words, lable me as on way or another, man, child or boy, so what do i do, when these vissions are so vital to pen, i know not what swimms within me, what is within myself, within this mind, and not know myself so well, of which knows more than i will ever realize, with such a spirit watching over me, ancent in age, so that the hills cant remember its beginning, the vewry birth of this creature is a mystery, this is a question i will never know, so with all my past footsteps, hard times, i'm lead through it all by a guide i will never understand, so i will find a way to keep my love, and lead myself down this path, to the holy grail of my quests, to answer this question, the moose with its majestic formality, rusing up with a sturn, masterful, knowledgefull, peaceful, a loveable stance over all the fields, so the question is

 

where does this road lead?

The road only leads you where it wants you to go hence the your new journey for life. Comma's are a distraction but at the same time is what makes the write all more better a read, everyone deserves a challenge and thats what you have given them.

ahh...where indeed...only you know! Introspective writing always interests me..listening to the mind of another as they made sense of their world..nice analogy with the moose which on all accounts doesn't probably get the credit it is due..

Small errors in spelling, possibly typing errors, where does your road lead, only you can answer that question, thoughtful writing, searching one's soul for answers

They are odd looking creatures. Nearly as odd as giraffes, but so graceful in movement.

In my beliefs an animal may lead you down a path you are meant to follow so this piece of work has a slightly spiritual meaning for me. It is very well written and has intense imagery. You capture both the nature around you and within you at the same time. Great job.

So many trips to Canada and the Pacific Northwest hoping to get a glance at a majestic moose, but it never happened. Maybe someday. Loved your poem!
