I walked the Mississippi,
Meandering a bit,
Crossed below the water’s edge,
To see where I might fit.
I found great beauty on display,
In art, diversified.
And every statue that I passed,
Had secrets to confide.
I found here endless beauty,
And warmth beneath the sun.
Shared too Renoir’s greatness,
When steps were first begun.
I sensed here too, the energy,
Creatively expressed.
By artists and observers both,
Now wonderfully impressed.
I found those names like Besthoff,
Who gave this gift to me.
Beneath the cloudless sky this day,
I found true ecstasy.
Creatively imagined
And mystically surreal.
The energy of life itself,
This garden did reveal.
