Red Clay Haze Rises

a Prey Mantis waits perched on an Althea Limb. Crows caw. More Gray Clouds Flow in. Grass-Hopper Sparrows bounce about the Clumps of White Clover Flowers sticking up out of the Lush Green Shamrocks Patches. Yellow, Pink & White Prickly Barb Bulbs Bloom in the Rabbit Tobacco & in between the Crepe Myrtle Bushes. Tiny White Breasted Nuthatches Gladly Give Thanks as they open Crepe Myrtle Seed Pods; The Leaves Are Filling,and Buds forming. Bumble Bees buzz at the White Cherokee Roses. Blue Jays Whine in the Magnolia Trees. Red Roses poke between the porch Rails. Roosters CROW & CROW. Dew Filled Butter Cups await the Sun. Mourning Doves on Walnut Branches & Love Doves up on the Power line Chant Morning Prayers. I Hear a Crop duster plane to the East and Red Clay Haze Rises over the South. Cattle Egret Land in the Field. Cows moo. Ruffus Turkey Gobbles as His Hens Follow behind at the Wood's Edge. Deer Graze past the barn. Mocking Birds flash & Flare. A Majestic Monarch Butterfly Flutters to Each Pomogranette Bloom. Purple Finches in the Red Cammie Bush & Brown-Headed Cowbirds Sing to the LORD with Glee!
