Notes About The Poem







 

Just Jotting Lines

Blood red sun peeks through silhouetted pines
Lavender frosts the eastern sky
Crepe Myrtle blossoms line the drive 
Time in the hour glass marches by

The summer sun has changed to orange
As it rises higher still
The gray wolf's eye sky looks innocent
As it coats each and every hill

The roosters' voices fall flat in the hollow
The air hangs heavy today
Song birds add their dimension
As tunes begin to play

Bright yellow-orange sun is higher
It shines over the tops of trees
What will this day offer
Will its plot be sure to please
