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.

 

7/2/26 5:30 52F (11C)  No wind.  The sky is filled with mares tails.

In the distance a lone sprayer drones.

Now another one, closer this time, joins in an orchard sprayer duet.

Birds sing, unbothered by the whine.

Walter barks a bit, then lies down.

The clouds thin and dissipate, only to coalesce and thin once more in a lacey dance of the veils in the sky.

Good morning.
