The Visual Sights I See

A trivial bit of snow right outside my front door
The creek slowly moving below
This sight I see every year usually with more deer
The wood stove is burning keeping me warm

With smoke pouring out its pipe twirling up into the sky
The fresh sent of wood burning is like a perfume
To a woodcarvers sense of smell
With bacon and eggs sizzling on top of the stove

Coffee percolating drip by drip adds to this delicious smell
Honk, honk, beep, beep I do not hear
I hear only deer jumping and playing in the snow
This silence so deafening my ears are hurting form a lack of sound

As I eat my breakfast looking out my front door
Gazing on this snow covered sight
Poetry attacks me and words flow though my mind
Trying to give you a taste of what I see

Enjoying this breakfast with me

WOW Bobby, such a beautiful place. I am jealous my friend. What could be better than waking up each morning to that. I love the outdoors and I am a huge trout fisherman so that is like heaven to me. Great write and thank you for sharing. All the best...Charlie
