Peepers Thank the RAINMAKER!

I Spook a Seminole Bat resting in the Grape Branches as I fill my Pockets. Woodpeckers drum in the Hand's Oaks. Black Jacks buzz about on Grapes. A HackBerry Emperor Butterfly lands on my Shin. Crows caw flying over Head. Grapes fall as I bump about. Cardinals & Orchard Orioles Sing Grace Feasting on Grapes for Lunch. A White Sulphur Butterfly Works the Purple Ivy Straws twisted in the Grapes Vines. A Mockingbird Couple flare and FUSS at me. Mice enjoy the Spoils below. The Roosters crow. A Grass Frog Zapps a few Bugs on a Grape. A Tree Snake slides slowly down a Vine. As I come out Drops fall from a Stray Puffy Little Gray Cloud. Chattering, Grackles Swarm up out of the Big Oak's Top Flapping away. A Rainbow Spreads to the North as the Light fresh Shower sooths my Soul; the Rainbow Folds as the Cloud Travels on the the Northeast. There's Mockingbird Poop on my Sleeve. Leaves seem more alive. Chimney Swifts Dive-Bomb the Front Field Gobbling up Coupling Love Bugs struggling to Fly. Peepers Thank the RAINMAKER! Four Lovely Turtle Doves on the barbed wire in the Shade & White-Winged Doves on Pecan Limbs Chant Prayers with the Ground Doves under the Palms. Monarch Butter Flies Flutter in the Honey Suckle along the back fence. A Couple Ruby-Throated Hummingbirds tend to the Pink Crepe Myrtles. Black Saddlebag Dragonflies zip low over the Lush Thick Grass. Cattle Egret Heads Bob up in the Tall Green Wire Grass. A Red Spider Sets a Silky Snare in a Clump of Brown dead Grass Banked along the fence. Bob Whites Whistle in the Thick-Its. Wasp crawl on rotting Peaches in the Pine Straw. Red-Crested Cardinals enjoy the last few Peaches hanging. A Green Preying mantis Prays on a Canaan Lily Leaf. Brown-Headed Cowbirds on Walnut limbs & Song Sparrows in the Cammy Bushes Praise the LORD with Glee!
