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.

 

8/30/25 7:00 58f (14.4c) Calm. A vestige of the wildfire haze that settled in last evening still remains. It lends a golden tinge to the morning light.

It is quiet  now. Earlier,  the crews were banging ladders in the orchards and Walter was leading the neighborhood dogs in voicing their disapproval.

A bird is chirping in the oaks. I sit in my warm, dilute solution of bleach,  sipping dark, cardamom tea. Good morning.
