The Poet’s Corner
_ KODIAK’S GRANDEUR
What can I say that hasn’t been
said
Of Kodpfc’ mountains, rivers and
lakes?
Its beauty so grand, most too hard
to take
From early morning till late at
night.
Its ever changing grandeur, its
unassuming splendor.
The tops of its mountains reaching
the sky,,
Brushing the clouds as they roll
by.
The rivers abounding and teeming
with fish,
What more could a sportsman or
fisherman wish?
"God’s” country surely, this land
so fair i.
Thank you "God” for letting me
share
For a few short weeks, this place
supreme
Where I truly, and gratefully feel
like a queen.
