Ponder Poem by Ernestine Northover

Ponder

Rating: 5.0


The tufts of grass grew tall along the wall,
then through the fence, continued on their way,
into a meadow.
There, wild flowers grew,
in vivid colours of every hue,
and were strewn down the hill in disarray,
sparkling bright in the early newborn day,
leaving the mind to ponder on it all.

Without the picture of nature we would often be at a loss for subject matter Ernestine - - and as your lovely verse reminds us we all have much food for poetic thought in the bounties of the hedgerow....10 from Fay...

Even the grass on the wall lets you ponder on if only you are a staunch nature-lover ...simply superb
