The Cloudy Morning Garden

Mosquitos and Mr. Mockingbird

The mourning doves are in the palm tree

Squirrels in their nest

The tree is resting

The sky is hazy white

Where has the blue bird gone

A leaning ponytail palm

A monster has chewed on the sunflower leaves

The white rose doesn’t like those brown tipped leaves

The dog just shakes her ears

It’s cloudy

No sun umbrella needed

If there was a clothesline pointless

To hang out wet ones

The wee house wrens are chattering

There was no funeral for the killer caterpillars dressed in black before

They are grey in their graveyard

The blue jays left the garden w

When the peanuts disappeared

It’s cloudy here except f

or the friendly orange necked finch
