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.

 

 

12/6/25 5:30 50F (10C) It is a warm moonlit morning with a fresh Chinook Wind blowing.

I can almost taste the ocean in the breeze. I hear it coming through the firs on the ridge.

Arriving, it gusts through the naked oaks and swirls the heaps of leaves at their feet, before dropping them in new drifts and moving on.

The clouds have parted and the moon, just past full, shines as bright as day.

Good morning.
