My first poem written in high school many decades ago


Poem Artwork

The slow founts of dawn

On a cool winter's day

Cast but one momentous shadow

Where the new fawn once lay

Pausing silently in the moment

Sensing fresh dew on the sod

Delight in the advent

And the glory of God

That still in the early

And the middle of morn

Forget for a moment

Life's trials and it's scorn

So tell me of virtue

Sweet family and home

Tis' my God of Thee

Give me this moment alone

Morning shall soon pass

As I linger and yearn

Praying my God of Thee

For this moments return
