The Paddleboarder

#41—An observation in the form of a poem.

Welcome to Mind Flexing, your weekly thought expedition to everywhere and anywhere. Strap on your boots (or put your feet up), take a deep breath, and let’s get flexing.

I watch a man move across the bay,
His paddleboard submerged in the glory of morning's first light.
The water flickers
in a beam reaching forth from a celestial body
majestical and blinding, 
and I think
Jesus Christ
That's how it's done.

My time in Tasmania is almost at an end and normal posts will resume next week. In the meantime, whether by chance or by miracle, you have time, you may like to listen to one of the audio tracks I recorded of four of my most popular essays.

Thank you for Mind Flexing with me. If you enjoyed this essay, please subscribe, comment, click the ❤️ button, or share it with someone who would appreciate it. I’ll be back next week. Until then, keep 💪.
