A poem by Sydney Stone. I do not own the image.
***
Silvered wisps,
Grip,
Forest tips,
As tulip hips,
Drip,
Dewdrop bliss.
New sun’s dawning,
Fawning,
Over fox kit’s yawning.
Bull elk bellows,
It’s misted-breath yellowed,
In meadows mellow.
Distant twig snaps,
To the tune of rap-tap,
From the woodpecker’s trap.
The day has thus come,
To a world still young,
Filled with songs yet to be sung.
