A Meal

It's a bit dry and hot out

Sun is blazing down 

And no water to be found 

Buzzard watching man

that's great Willard, I like this type of poem and you excel at it, I know your problem in that part of the world right now, given the lower temps here right now i'd say you got our heat, its always boiling here through to October, that is until now but soon i guess although hopefully we never had Buzzards before lol

It is about a month behind. We have been 20 degrees below normal for this time of year. Just this week it started. Our heat is not an issue for the most part since it's normal. But a few years with low rain numbers has finally caught up with us. Thanks for reading and commenting

Yeahh, I liked this. So many similar scenes in my favourite Westerns flashed through my mind of these predators circling hapless cast members whose fate always seemed to be sealed ~ except when it was the big man in the big picture ~ the buzzard rarely got a taste of him!
Nice one Will.

Thank you Anto, I had fun writing it and yes the movies had many of those scenes.

Amazing senyru. both death and life in the desert...

[Willard Wells]

Well my view while desert in appearance is California and the rest of the dry southwest. Desert to me is correct, cause no matter how many trees you plant or lawns you put in, when the waters gone, it's a desert again. Thank you kind lady for your reading and commenting.

The buzzard is thirsty and you are 78% WATER Willard, more if you have been sipping the Nocal grapes!
LA must, be worse down there, right?

[Willard Wells]

The entire state is in trouble along with other state in the southwest. They may get water before us down south due to the El Nino effect. And very lovely. Lucky man smart girl.

This one is short but interesting and enjoyable to read too.
Good job on this one Willard.

This one did not exist 10 mins ago. I posted a remark to Aaron and I liked a sentence and wrote this. The last line was the only finish add. Kind of a fun dark piece. Thanks again for reading.
