At the Break of Dawn

The squirrels are busy They are searching now Looking everywhere Searching high and low For the needed food To keep the food stored During the winter months Swans that are in parks Now have a winter home They will be cared for Although the winter Geese are flying now Going somewhere warm Robins flies south to The darkness comes early Daylight leaves beforehand Two birds are resting They are so cozy Awaken from sleep To greet another day At the break of dawn

Splendid imagery! How do you do it? -- always perfect! Never sounding strained but truly in the moment...which the reader senses, and becomes part of immediately. Great writing! Another Favorite!

Hello Panagiota, I worry about cats in the winter as well. A grey cat I named Romano had a home. yet he always wondered into the yard, climbed on the window sill looking inside my sister's home. I want3d tole him in but becauise of the dog i couldnot do that.

Hello Darlene ... while we sit close to a fire during winter, it must be a harrowing time for wildlife, but of course over countless generations the strong have adapted well - thank you Darlene - Lindsay

Hello Laurie, yes it must be harrowing for the animals to indure the harsh winters. Yes the strong do adapted well. It amazes me how a small Sparrow lives through the whole winter Hugs. Enjoy your day my friend.
