Kim Rodrigues Poet Free verse

Yawns

YAWNS 

Yonder valley of stone
Yellow yawns wonder

Seemingly yelling
In open mouth drawls

Rain or streams
I do not know

Blowing nose, dabbing eyes
Taking warm sips of tarpit

Toothpick splinters barely hold
Open misty window shades

Eventually snapping shut
Locked like crocodile jaws
