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.

Overcast, no wind. Rain is predicted for later in the day.

Amy left clothes hanging on the line last night; there is no dew this morning, so they may still be dry.

The jays are squabbling. Their raucous squawks drown out the cheeps and trills of other birds.

Walter is barking. I call him, but he doesn’t come.

Giving up, I drink my tea.

The rooster crows.

After breakfast I will ride the Triumph down to the airfield to help Russ. We will be providing taxi service with our sidecars for participants at the WAAAM fly-in.

Good morning.
