Good Morning

The Writer, Vernon Wade

Vernon Wade is a poet, author and freelancer. He has been published in The Gorge Literary Journal, Dualsport Rider Magazine, Hack’d Magazine, The Sidecarist, ROB Magazine and The Hood River News.

The world fills him with wonder.  When he looks at the sky he is lifted into flights of fancy, when he stares at the earth he is drawn beneath its surface. He is delighted to find the macrocosm and the microcosm equally mesmerizing.

Robert departs today and Amy arrives.

It didn’t freeze last night, but I believe it came close.

Looking through the smokehole I can see there is a light breeze fluttering the streamers.

It was quite dark when I stumbled to the latrine at 5:00.

Upon returning, I stoked the fire and drank some water before crawling back into my blankets.

The fire has burned to embers.

Light is slipping into the forest.

Ravens call to each other as they float between the trees.

I turn out before the rest of the camp, to kindle the breakfast fire.

Good morning.
