Precious Wonder Poem by David Whalen

Lonely country road
Complete soft
Silky silence

Broken only, by
Soft wistful whispers
Of downy, lace-like snow

Moon hazed over
nebulous clouds
Frosty glaze of icing spread

From horizon to infinity

Silence deafening
In it’s crystal stillness
Deep breaths of frigid freshness

Strive to savor

It’s precious essence
For this wonder tis what
Is precious now

Old poet’s random musings

Of precious wonders
Oft unnoticed
Oft passed by

Precious wonders
Cast asunder
Oft overlooked by hurried eye

Soft whisper of snow
Soft aura of moonglow
Precious wonders passed over

By you and I
