farm at home

farm at home

ground fog laid low

over barren field of early fall

casting evil serenity across familiar pond.

tobacco barn and well house rose in silence 

from the blanket of whitened dew.

red tailed hawk

called it's warning song,

everything listened.

cold wet grass made way between my toes

sending quick chill.

it was a moment to inhale ... to exhale ... to stand tall.

morning dawn fought battle 

standing victorious melting away the wet invader

greeting each in new day.
