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.

A few stars still shine overhead when dawn lifts the blanket edge of night.

A weak breeze flutters through the dried ruins of corn stalks and gently sways the birch.

Walter argues with someone down the road, still grumbling well after it becomes apparent there will be no resolution to their differences.

Birds chitter and chirp as early light seeps into the canyon.

Good morning.
