Carol E. Doering Poems

Listen and you can hear the silence
The time when daylight intrudes upon the night
You can see the dew on the grass and see the snails
hurrying home before the sun makes the ground too
...

It comes against the cheek with the softness of velvet
It rushes through the air as feathers caught in the wind
It sends the message clear, I love you
A painter's stroke upon the canvas
...

Fast moving clouds, darkness coming on
The roll of thunder in the distance
Trees start to sway, lightening in the far sky
Daylight into night with the swiftness of a moment
...
