Poetry About Giants

At dawn, a footprint holds the village pond. Clouds snag briefly on the traveler's shoulders. The giant speaks slowly because mountains listen. Children hide, then notice sadness in the enormous face. Size can frighten without making a monster. One offered loaf turns thunder into conversation.

Clouds snag briefly on the traveler's shoulders. Scale changes fear, but kindness changes the story. Children hide, then notice sadness in the enormous face. Even giants keeps more than one meaning in view. Even legends may be lonely above the rooftops.

At dawn, a footprint holds the village pond. Time carries the image beyond its first appearance. The giant speaks slowly because mountains listen. Size can frighten without making a monster. Even legends may be lonely above the rooftops. One offered loaf turns thunder into conversation.
