Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Sense of Wonder

  
         Who neglects to marvel
           sun-up to sundown
         at daily miracles all around

         Water flows under snow
            evaporation happens… 

         O how the paper cut burns
            on which a sense of wonder turns

Line Gauthier November 15, 2025 at 8:53 PM Love everything about this. Very clever to have a rhyming couplet at the end ~ totally elevates the poem. Well penned, Gershon ~ Gershon Wolf November 16, 2025 at 8:23 PM I need to take the elevator now. Can't manage the stairs anymore. lol .
