Ice Pond Road (Acrostic)

Rating: 5.0


I saw a little sign for 'Ice Pond Road'
Could not remember seeing it before
Excited, promptly down the road I drove

Perchance I'd see a deer, a fox, or more
On both sides of the road were gorgeous trees
No human sign was there to spoil the view
Ducks flew past swiftly in the gentle breeze

Rabbits appeared, and they were quite a few
One great big rock chuck showed me his front knees
A family of grouse walked in a line
Did not see any deer but that was fine

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I love October! The fall colors on the trees today were incredible. I was driving down a road I had not driven for quite some time when I saw the sign for Ice Pond Road. I'm sure it wasn't there before, but what a fantastic find! Do something different, people! Drive down some new road! Written 17 October 2019- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Not posted on the day it was written, because I was unable to read any poems for some reason. Poem Hunter has some serious issues with the operation of the website. I thought there was no sense posting it if nobody could read it.Today there is a different problem. I can click on poems and read them just fine, but have tried to leave comments on many poems, and the system won't let me leave any comments! (Yet I see that others have left comments on poems today.) 18 October 2019

I should like to don a Balaklava (in order to breathe) and walk down your ice pond road. Spend some time there I am reading Paul Gallico where a little boy is turned into a white cat and thrown on to the streets of London

Thanks for commenting, Wes. Paul Gallico has written probably hundreds of books but I don't think I've ever read one of his. What is the title of the one you are reading? I would like to find it in my local library.
