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.

 

 

7/4/25 6:00 59f (15c) Dry, no wind. The thin, grey overcast has a rip over the east ridge and is unraveling before the sun.

The chicken door is open and the rooster is outside too early. I wonder if it closed last night.

The cherry cannon’s booming, hollow reports, a mocking celebration of our once fabled  freedom.

A humming bird perches on a dead maple branch, then is gone.
