Dordogne

C.B. Cox

I park my dormobile, then walk
A mile upstream to start my swim.
A swirling current sweeps me back,

A floating man, my journey through
Deep greens and blues, reflected oaks,
An upside down red chimney stack.

From my new vantage point I see
A castle, perched on walnut trees,
...
Searching, please wait...
