“Winter on Deer Creek”
Delphi, Indiana
2003
Winter on Deer Creek
Where glistening ripples flow
Along banks and ‘round boulders
With hidden wonders below.
Winter on Deer Creek
Slate Bluffs on Deer Creek
Support icy columns
Encasing a hollow
Where there’s a cathedral so solemn.
Winter on Deer Creek
Winter tracks along the Deer Creek
A multitude of woodland creatures
With traces of birds, squirrels, and deer
And only a few with mankind features.
Winter on Deer Creek
Boughs of Deer Creek’s pines
Are heavily laden with snow
And they sigh and then sway in the wind
Covering rosy-cheeked visitors below.
Winter on Deer Creek
Deer Creek’s waters give
Frosty reflections
And are merely silhouettes
Of nature’s perfections.
