Geese

I gaze in awe at skeins of geese in flight,

   Framed within the majestic moon at night!

       From whence they came I ponder

          And whither they go I wonder!

Another great poem Bob. I have written a poem about geese myself. The title of that one is "Canadian Geese". It was one of my earliest submissions to this site.

Cute write. Don't know whence or whither, but hope one flies hence and hither onto my Christmas dinner table.

Very nice write Bob! I do wonder that myself, where exactly do the birds go...all the way to South America? or maybe Central America? I like that you framed them with the awesome sight of the moon...my favorite satellite! Awesome Work!!
