Behind the Wood Shed

Inca Doves in the Chinaberry Tree & Rock Doves on the smoke house roof Join in the Prayer Chanting. Cool Dewy Grass Paints my feet. Waiting turns, Purple Martins are Gathered in two rows on power lines, as Many more Martins dive & dip gliding about into Gnat Swarms. Yellow Meadow-Hawks zip about, as well cutting even lower. Roosters crow; Chickens cluck. A Two Inch High Mud packed Tunnel sticks up out of the Grass; a large mean looking Brownish Wasp Crawls out and flits off.  Song Sparrows on the Pink Crepe Myrtle Bushes and Two Red-Winged Blackbirds on the tractor shed sing a Raspy Country Praise Song to the TRUE KING of Music! Half Moon climbs down SLOWLY. Crows caw. As Shadows shift the Sun drinks Dew from Butter Cups & sipps on Four O'clocks. Woodstars Hover about the Honey Suckle Shoots. A Skeeter drinks a Bloody tommy enjoying It's last meal on my arm. Old Rufus Turkey Gobbles strutting out of the West Woods; His Hens chase behind. Little Gray Butterflies Frolic over the Back Yard. A Hairy Woodpecker taps the Pecan Tree. Cicadas Pray SIRENNING to the LORD! . An American Kestrel glides back around, tucking His wings Shoots like an arrow down behind the Wood shed.
