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.

The sun has topped the ridge,  there is a slight breeze  and a few mares tails are reaching across an otherwise clear sky.

Walter is barking at the orchard workers.

Strands of spider silk flash silver in the morning sunlight.

Acorns fall at irregular intervals, thumping the ground hard.

I hear the hoarse call of a crow somewhere  beyond Selle’s barn. My rooster answers him.

Good morning.
