The Country Boy

the blank pages dares me, 

taunts me, mocks me to fill it, 

I can't think of anything, 

I can't arrange the idea inside 

my head, 

into something coherent, 

something that would communicate the theme 

"Look here's today's poem"

In the background, a soulful Vince Gill

song "Go Rest High on That Mountain" 

It's kind of nostalgic, 

brings forth a memory I haven't live through yet 

and I realise I won't ever live such a moment

I have no desire

Deep inside I am country boy 

not so well-versed with so many things 

Well, and this is today's poem 

for me and that one reader who shows up 

on this page 

I wish you weren't anonymous, 

my one loyal reader
