Howard Kerr Poet Nonet

Notes About The Poem

Nature is one of my many loves.  I appreciate it wether in a rural  serting                          
or on city margins, even in the heart of the city.                       
However,  I have chosen a rural backdrop here      

 

 

Nature

In nature trails, forests, green meadows
I love to dwell and eavesdrop on
that dulcet songbird chorus
wakening the dawn haze 
where rustic wild life 
and spring water 
hint at lush 
tranquil
lairs

Andrea Dietrich March 23, 2026 at 2:02 PM You did yours extremely well it's like the opposite of my greatest pleasure. Haha Howard Kerr March 23, 2026 at 2:29 PM Oh Andrea your entry is much better than mine. But you have been so kind to me. Now that you raise the subject our two entries are indoor/outdoor contrasts. Quite amusing, Howard
