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.

Stars blink through shifting clouds.

No wind, no creatures moving in the dark.

Aside from the whiring tires of the occasional passing car, it is very quiet.

Walter, satisfied with the results of his earlier patrol, rests on the deck nearby.

Amy, having returned from visiting her mom in California, sleeps inside.

I am content to drink my tea

Good morning.
