From My Front Window
Mount Baker looming,
resembling huge ice cream cone
cooling summer day.
Swallows swoop, swallowing lunch
from Mother Nature’s bounty.
Humming birds sipping,
finches defending feeders,
robins stalking worms,
while blackbirds gossip on wires
and starlings steal ripest fruit.
Last of roses blaze,
fall asters show blue color
as trees lose some leaves.
Huge loads of produce pass by.
Across the road crops ripen.
