This Fall Day

Sent the kid out to play On this a perfect warm falls day Lots of breeze to blow the leaves away Reminding me of early Mays rays Exotic wind towards this evening fall In the horizon comes a great gray wall Thunder answers the rain storms call Taking in the magnificence of it all Up in the sky today I saw A beautiful wonder a double Sun Dog One of the glorious things made by God In the sky a giant colored dot And at the end of a perfect day I take a rest and think of the things to appreciate Yawning lazily I see it's getting late Thinking to myself that my day sure was great This is a great big world And I am here just a single girl Then I give my hair one last twirl Going to sleep dreaming about a gigantic pearl Ruth Courtney 10-31-2012 Autum Air

a double sun dog is a like round rainbow has vertical or horizontal stripes and usually are yellow red and blue it old tales they forwarn against weather. I saw three in two days, one double/ one single, meaning USA is getting a natural disaster in the next year

Rachel a sun dog is made when it tries to escape it's orbital pass around the planet the sun dog is seen as the planet drags the moon back into it's power, Notrosdamis said that we watch our weather change from such actions. This happens offten for Venus and Mercury but it also happens from our sun, when it's the sun major natural disasters occur,
