AWAKE  ~ IN and OUT ~

Spring arising, before morning light,
I walk under the new epic sun
The aroma of yesterday, gone
Today's the day that will follow tomorrow
I quickly walk a certain walk
Unique is all I can display
Watery eyes staying in the past
While vehicles pass and...

Premium Member The Goddess
With brilliance, clad in white, in an enchanted world,
a vision most inviting stands before my very eyes.
She treads a grassy hill beyond which mountains rise
to heaven's heights where fluffs of clouds, as if in pink, are swirled.

Her golden locks are streaming in a gentle breeze....

~hanging on~

I wake, bright and early like the sun
I fall asleep a few seconds before dawn.

With a few hours of sleep
I found myself counting sheep.

Drinking  coffee before I leave
Found myself in a zone not even I believe

I kick the neighbors  dog real far
Tired...

Premium Member A Week In Life
It is Monday, today is pay the bills and light shop.
All this after we have been for the morning run.
The dogs are always keen, they trot beside me
as at ten miles an hour we cover the ground

Always pleased to see their friends we stop and...

When the moon kissed the sun, and light spread upon the earth. *hh*
Bright and early, 
early bird gets the worm.

With sullen time on stand by.... *DJ*"
Spurns emerald valleys that blur upon my new-found perch  *J.M.G*
While all nature wakes from slumber in...

Premium Member Town Called Rotgut
Armadilly Billy the Sling Shot Kidster was steadily on the move.
He was leaving the Southwest and his reputation behind, for sure!
Every gunslinger was out for him and of killing he’d become tired.
Even the weather was being surly, as a dust storm was blowing wild.

Traveling way...

Going Fishing
Wake up bright and early
Eat a hearty breakfast
Pack up a yummy lunch
Check all of your fishing gear
Put on your oldest clothes and favorite fishing hat
Don’t forget the sunscreen
Time to get a move on, while the fish are still really biting
Quick stop at the bait shop...

Premium Member Battle of Pigeon-Way
The days were getting long, and the Fourth of July was coming up, soon.
With the City Park clean, a better raise might come, so very long over due.
The Sheriff of Crazyland was cleaning pigeon poo, too often, lately. True!
He was getting Crazier, by the minute,...

Little Davy wanted a puppy for Christmas
His parents, though, were totally against it
Davy whimpered and whined til he was breathless
“Please,” he wrote to Santa, “bring a puppy, Mr. Clause”

The big day drew closer and Davy said a prayer,
“Please, dear Lord, let my puppy be there”
He...

My Summer Day - Contest
It's bright and early the birds alarm has rung,
More than two tunes I can hear being sung,
Twitterings and tweetings brings the garden alive,
enjoying the scene with Tilly by my side

Jumped  into the car drove to the woods,
would have loved the beach, if only I could.
Tilly would...

Message in a bottle

I love the coast and a fresh morning breeze
The salt air inspires me for no reason at all
The sun rises, as I ponder this great universe
God’s great earth is a miracle bestowed before my very eyes

I stumbled and fell
Over a washed up...

The Morning Rush
The Morning Rush

Early to bed early to rise, makes one healthy and wise....
So here I am,  wide awake and awaiting sunrise....

The millionaires, they sleep on, not a surprise...
If they awake before noon, that itself is an event.....

For even when they sleep, their money ...

Thanksgiving
This is a time for gathering side by side,
Frustrations set aside by the riverside.
Step off the roller coaster of life,
Spend time with the people in your life.

Set up the fryer and inject the turkey.
Dinner prep starts bright and early.
Mac and cheese bakes in the oven,
Everyone’s...

The Chase
Bright and early in the morning,
Certain seasons of the year,
The hunter feels temptation,
To chase the timid deer.

With his rifle and his knife,
He searches constantly,
Every hoping, ever dreaming,
Just one deer to see.

Though he may come home at night,
At a not-so-hurried pace,
He is ready in the morning,
To...

Ten Thousand White Horses
 
I open up my eyes on this dark November morn
Up bright and early at the very crack of dawn
When the sun she ascends I am happy to admire
As I dress in my warmest winter attire
Then gently make my way down towards the sea
For the...
