“Wake up, breakfast is cooking.”
Bacon in cast iron skillet,
sounds and smells, wafted through the tent.
“Coming”, the crackling bacon got me!

Night Sounds At Campsite
Written: by Miracle Man
February 10, 2021
Night sounds heard around our campfire,
Sounds from darkness beyond our campsite.
I’d often hear the swish of a nocturnal flier,
a sound that always gave a young boy fright.
Not due to loneliness did the coyote howl,
but it sent out a message to me-beware.
Nor did I understand the answering Owl,
who gave a hoot but didn’t really care.
