Wintery Senses Poem by Della Perry
Wintery Senses
My wintry friends were out today
Waving cold, bare arms in the breeze,
'Hello friend, ' whispered the trees.
Above them black crows danced in the air,
Swaying, up and below grey clouds,
Singing sweet songs so proud.
I stood still and listened hard,
Factory hammers growled and groaned,
While cars sped by and moaned.
In the air I could smell the Spring,
Trying to push through the ground
Daffodils tried to be found.
Upon the ground a feather flew,
I wonder if the bird knew
of a missing, soft feather now by my shoe?
I tasted an icy, clear dew drop,
Cold and damp upon my tongue,
A wonderful feeling that didn't last long.
I feel so lucky that I can hear,
Smell, touch, taste and I can see,
I am so lucky to be me!
