Bobcat's Hunger

Needing desperately my time on the porch The cloudy days have gloomily encroached Upon my emotions so that I could cry the tears Equal to the rain that is pouring down around The sun has already risen Hidden behind dark gray Blanketed clouds weeping Moisture on all the ground The only gold to be seen Is the golden Helianthus Maximilianii Prairie Sunflower that blooms It definitely has to be the sun On a day like today The trees are holding So much moisture That the leaves weep Onto the saturated ground Is God weeping Over the whole world From his throne In the third heaven above So much is wrong Moral decay People lost for what Life is all about People feeling that There is no hope That all is lost Financial ruin for many The rooster still crows And the crows are Crawing from a different Locality far away There are dogs Barking down Across the creek Where the fighting roosters stay Like there is something Wrong down there Maybe a hungry Bobcat Or wild dog herd Responsibility calls Need to go and leave The peace and comfort Come down from the mountain

Oh the get away, the peaceful time, what life is all about, love in action. Nature at it's best, such a manifest. Sincerely, Love, Moses

The coming of winter tend to bring on these gloomy times of self doubt and questioning. Hope for the sunshine. Nice poem.
