Foggy Hollow

The foggy hollow reverberates
with rooster's echoes
Cackling hens sing a laying tune
Biddies for their true beau

Horizonal wispy white clouds
Lie upon the blue sky
Birds of the morn sing love's refrain
So in love you and I

The sun cast a lavender glow
Upon those wispy clouds
Like a cold morning in winter
When the birds don't sing loud

As the sun continues to rise
A fireball cut in half
Sending red sunbeams through the trees
Printing a lithograph

The radiant orange beach ball 
Floats in the eastern sky
Bringing warmth like chicken soup
or the gleam in a man's eye

So much beautiful imagery in this delightful poem, dear Sara. I especially enjoyed the fourth verse - extraordinary metaphor with the lithograph. I smiled and chuckled reading the last verse. Indeed, the some provides "warmth like chicken soup" and seems to "gleam." Well done, my friend! Love, carolyn
