On a Winter’s Night--By John W. (Bill) Williams--United States

I love walking in Nature’s silence,
On a winter’s night
Where moonbeams paste shadows
Across stretches of white…

  3. Dear Bill,

    I can feel hear the quiet freshness of the new fallen snow and then maybe the echo of an owl.

  4. Hi Bill
    Your imagery is fresh and I love the unusual verb in relation to
    the setting. Seems to transform the scene into a paper collage.
    Thanks for a wonderful poem.
