This image I found at Google is about as close as I can come to replicating the house and view where I spent my little vacation earlier this month of July. I wish I could show all the variety of birds that were around me too!
Here in warm sunshine I sit, near by a beautiful lake. Many birds in the tree like to flit. Long lush branches the breeze likes to shake. Pretty birds all around call twit-twit - Sweetness of which I partake! Spotting some boats off a way dotting the lake, happily I have put down my pen as a jay swoops on by. That is when I first see shadows creeping have dimmed my noon day. Sunlight, as always, must flee. Written July 1, 2015 for the Quatret Poetry Contest of Isaiah Zerbst
