Silently

Silently it travels, along this tree lined way Shouldered by the softest green, nature on display ~ Carved of destinations, inviting is the scene Heading off to nowhere fast, lost inside a dream ~ Evergreen endeavors, now heed the nightly call Whispering on fragrant winds, lingering this fall ~ You and I together, love becomes the view For nature is so beautiful, when it’s shared with you ~

This so beautifully conceived, and the phrasing is 'vintage Chris Green.' … I was especially intrigued by the line, 'Shouldered by the softest green.' Lit aficionados might dig deep for the significance of your name appearing in the poem. Bravo! Warmest wishes, Gershon

Unbelievable someone has to come in here with a comment to disrupt beautiful poetry. Rude and disrespectful! Just stop.

Arthur: What does your comment have to do with the poem Chris wrote?! That's a rhetorical question, of course... because your comment has nothing to do with Chris' poem, does it?! ~ Gershon
