Whispers of the Past

On some misty morning when the ground is wet and still When clouds obscure the forest and creeks flow the rill Go sacredly and slowly and you will surely hear Whispers of the past from the ghosts of yesteryear They talk of things that happened long before your birth and soon they'll disappear when the mist falls to earth You'll know that they are near by the rustle on the grounds Watch in silent wonderment as the ghosts go on their rounds

Judy, this is not so scary that you wouldn't share it with the youngest of children... and would go great around a camp fire... Very well done, my dear. Congrats... Jake

I love the yesteryear. Simply because it cannot be altered and it grows by the day. It is a wonderous place to escape to when today crowds you in. Lovely write. Thank you for reading my stuff. God Bless. Dave.
