Grass clippings
And the fresh morning dew
Clinging to my feet
Rhythmic footsteps fade
Staccato slapping begins
Hungry mosquitoes
Rain on corn fields
Black birds with red wings
Give chase
Picking mud
From the bottom
Of my shoes
Bright morning
Dew on the grass
Sweat on the brow
Blue sky overhead
Bluestem trail underfoot
Twitch of whitetail’s ear
Amidst the dense green
Fresh raspberry
Picked too soon
Brisk morning
Time to run
Faster
Tossing wind
Unsettled trees
Await the rain
Where five trails converge
Take the second on the left
For best results
