Dim sunrise,
	gray day, darkness
	Winter sadness.
	
		•

	Sweet sunrise,
	warning sirens.
	Spring threat.

	White-hot sunrise,
	burnt crops.
	Summer killing.

		•

	Cool sunrise,
	dead falling leaves. 
	Autumn closure....

to obtain a ranching diploma

Temps above 110;
Heat, defoliated trees,
Been worse?
Don't know when.

No need to mow.
Air so dry,
The Rooster can't crow.
Today a darkened sky,
Splotches, like grey stain.
My recurring thoughts are why?
It does not rain....
