Notes About The Poem

Silent Wonder

Silent Wonder

Snow falls gently on the dead grass in the front yard. 
I suppose it does the same in the back, 
I simply can not see it from my small window...
where I look out upon the world. 

I am not sad or happy. 
The soft fluff makes no noise. 
It covers the whole tree in a blanket of new, white!
The stars above glitter as the clouds leave, but the chilly flakes stay. 
Not for long but long enough. 

It was and is quite a show. 
Even if I am the only one to take note. 
I am still glad to have seen, no... witnessed the pleasant miracle. 





A. Foster, Ann Foster, Annette Foster
