Each And Ever Day

               Each And Everyday


Come dance in the atom leaves gold ,yellows and browns
floating from the trees upon a gentle breeze, tumbling around
and around safely landing into fresh plowed field.
Little ground squirrel gathering up nuts before the black
crow fines her goldmine of winters food .
Twelve point buck running across the field I hope him luck
to make it to other side into the woods where he’ll be safe from
the hunters gun.
Red Tail Hawk spies his evening meal before the night hides
the beauty of his flight.
Sun slowly going down on mother earth as she enters into
another night ,red tail hawk soon ends his flight into a old
skeleton tree .
Old barn Owl awakes from his daily sleep to meet another
night.
Possum and coons checking for food in a trashcan, keeping
a watchful eye out for headlights as folks are now leaving
the park right before dark.
Farmer sitting on his front porch drinking from a fruit jar as
he gazes up into the stars wondering if his late wife is looking
down on him .
He misses her so very much from a lifetime of love only with
each another.
Fuzzy kitten in a pasteboard box beside his rocking chair.
Wood smoke fills the night air with the smell of coffee boiling
on top of a potbelly stove .
Off in the distant a coyote howls to let him know he is near  .
God places in the old mans heart there is nothing to fear as he
lends back in his rocking chair.
A nightly breeze gradually smooths his soul as he turns his
thought into dreams of the one he loved.  
All the thing I have seen this day from the animals trusting
God to meet there each and every need from safety to there feed .
Hasty I have lived until now I realize, all I have missed I regret .
God moved my heart in a gentle way in all I have seen each and
everyday.
