Quiet Time

It's cool out this morn, 'pon the porch sitting As the gentle wind stirs new music is born All creatures that listen are benefitting It's cool out this morn Like cool fall minus the falling acorns Crows caw, roosters crow, other sounds flitting The Dove is quiet, maybe he's lovelorn Out on the porch clouds their rain emitting Now there's Dove's voice and reply reborn Time alone today I'm not omitting It's cool out this morn August 17, 2013

Just That Archaic Poet

I love the country and woodland inspirations you seem to find; I've noticed it's a common theme in many of your pieces. I usually don't have such a great reverence for nature type poems, but you capture the feel so wonderfully. I live in the foothills of the Appalachian mountains, and you make me feel like I am out on my front porch, out here in the country. Another nice read :)

Is it a swing or a chair. I would prefer to be swinging on that porch of yours!

you get a lot of poetry on this porch swing of yours. You could do a book and call it, "poetry from my porch!" And it would be a GREAT book.
