The Day Yawns, Stretches

The day yawns
stretches...
like a flower
petals upturned
ghostlike vapors
drift away
Bullfrogs croak
My dog slumbers

When I think of days yawning, I think of summer. Your poem evokes pleasant thoughts and peaceful feelings. :=)

I just got back from walking my dog, and this is just how my neighborhood feels - minus the bullfrogs, unfortunately...
