only a whisper by Stephanie KentThe wind sifts through the leaves,
scattered earthspun gold,
Until they brush the ground
like the footfalls of passing ghosts. 01/03/2005 Posted on 01/04/2005 Copyright © 2025 Stephanie Kent

Posted by JD Clay on 03/24/06 at 02:12 PM Like the poem itself, you've given it a soft and gentle voice, Stephanie. It reminds reminds me of the Rocky Mountain Range and how the aspens shimmer in the breeze. Congratulations on becoming The Poet Of The Day.
