Whispering Beauty
by
Nancy
L. Dorner
“This
is such boring country side”
They
say disdainfully with a sneer of pride,
“Back
home we have the mountainside,
the
shore.”
And
so they deride
the
land they see
as
if for beauty to exist at all
it
must scream and shout
in
vanity proclaiming
“Look
at Me!
Look
at Me!”
They’ve
never learned
that
Beauty too can whisper
and
that by its very nature
the
whisper and the sigh
are
more appropriate to loveliness
than are the shriek
and cry.
