A Shout Triumphant

A shout triumphant exudes pure joy O'er hill and dale, a bugle call The fox and hound prick up their ears Each cries out ~ distinct, their tears

The Fox and the Hound was one of my favorites growing up, thanks for reminding me of them today~

Hadn't thought of the Fox and the Hound that way... Thanks for providing another perspective, Michelle! Faith and Strength, Gershon

Excellent pen work on this one, Gershon. Showing through imagery is so much better than just telling. Smiles ~ Blessings my friend, Bill

Love your comment, Teacher! You are so right: Writers should 'show' the reader, not 'tell' him. Gotta live up to that more often! Thanks, gw

Your triumphant pen strikes again, Gershon. A fantastic poem with so much left to read between the lines. I'd like to think both the hound and the hunter were outfoxed by the foxy one with tears of joy! Warmest wishes, my dear friend.. ~Susan

Any subtlety that I have managed is due to reading fine poets like yourself, Susan. Really appreciate the privilege of reading your verse, as well as your generous words of encouragement. Light, Warmth and Joy, Gershon
