Maya Threw Rocks


We walked out the flume, forest beauty to seek,
& Maya threw rocks into Gold Creek.

"Look at the beaver dam," said Granny so fond,
& Maya threw rocks into the pond.






Icebergs and waterfall,
Glacier — the Mendenhall
What does it take?
& Maya threw rocks into the lake.

Up to Eaglecrest, blueberries to pick,
& Maya threw rocks into the crik.





Mama found berries up on the ridge,
& Maya threw rocks off of the bridge.

We examined the remnants of gold miners' dreams,
& Maya threw rocks into the streams.

  1. I like your poem and the sentiment you expressed.

    Children just have to do what children want to do don't they?

    The little darlings :)

    I would probably be throwing rocks also! What a beautiful place you live in. I cannot imagine seeing something so glorious as this.

  5. Hi,
    I came by from J's blog. What precious pictures. Maya is such a cutie and you're so lucky to have J as your daughter and of course, Py, too!

    What a beautiful poem. I have loved poetry since I was Maya's age. Thank you for sharing.
