Finding Fantastic Creatures

Finding Fantastic Creatures

They could have flown

Above the ark

Where the birds took

Exercise,

Now and then

Dropping down onto

The deck,

Uninvited

Though the ark-pilot

Is kind,

If somewhat crazed

Or maybe the dragons

Found

The ship of Gilgamesh,

Which also carried

Unicorns

We might as well believe

I prefer Christopher in conversation. In writing, I use C L Couch because it’s a genderless form of my name and, frankly, easier—I have severe writer’s cramp. I mean to be a poet writing spiritual and occasional verse. The photographs used permanently here—for the banner, for my profile—were taken by Debra Danielson, a photographer and friend. You may enjoy more of her work at debra.danielson.org. If you would credit me when quoting my work, I'd be thankful. As I am thankful for your presence here.
