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.

It is a dark, gray morning, as sodden as a discarded dishrag.

A disconsolate squawk breaks the silence, some unfortunate bird hiding in the rank grass and dripping briars of a neglected pasture.

My dog barks uncertainly at phantoms in the brush.

The gloom is pervasive.
