A Prey Mantis Prays

Robins Give Thanks Feasting on Red Wigglers Squirming about on the Ground. Humid Air Pushes the Fog off the River Down into the Wire Grass. Cattle Egret Heads bob up and Down. A Red-Tailed Fox Leaps at a Thick-It Clump; She Carries Dove Home For Breakfast. Ground Doves under the Palms & Turtle Doves on the barbed wire Chant Morning Prayer with the Inca Doves on the power line. Deer Graze in Uncle Doug's Clearing. Roosters CROW! The Sun POPS Up Over the Pines Drinking Buttercups & sippin' Suckle Straws. Crows caw. Dewy Web Nests, Weighing down the Pecan Branches, sparkle in the Sun Kisses. The Buffed-Bellied Hummingbirds Hover about the Pale Pink Althea Blooms. A Sphinx Moth tends to the Phloxes. A Cooper's hawk Cuts over the Full Moon. A Prey Mantis Prays in the Banana Flower Bush.
