Watercolor

Listen with your eyes Squabbling hens fluffing up their feathers A fox sneaks up on the fence line - wise The tractor beams on the side - weathered Crows caw as they fly through the branches The grass crunches under the farmers feet He has a Mossberg in his hands lifted He plans to fire off a shot - the sheep bleat Old Betsy is lowing from the barn - calf gifted Flies buzzing around her tail A breeze whistles through the trees A few Orioles are woke flapping their wings The fox gets the hint - flees When the wife spots him leaving - sings The night now up in commotion
