Like poets,
they do not have a large audience,
yet, they move, when they must,
with a grace that's resilient, benevolent.
Yielding to waves.
Persuaded by the wind.
Enduring winter's ice.
Emerging in the spring.
Arching above the water
with architectural strength.
Like poets,
they do not have
a large audience.
They simply
live a life
of quiet existence.
