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.

 

 

6/5/26 7:00 54F (12.2C) Cloudy,  light gusts, no rain.

I slept  late. The sun is over the ridge.

A brisk breeze blows through the oaks, shuffling leaves like a deck of cards.

Walter is barking at the neighbor’s dog. Sheila Kitty is critiquing my tea.

Traffic is rushing towards town with an air of late for work Friday morning urgency.

I don’t  care what Sheila thinks, this tea is just right.

Good morning.
