From Yonder WIndow

this is for Ron's contest, an entry from down South

A splash of tea and a taste of jam

While I gaze out yonder window.

Cool misty day laid low with fog.

 Slowly reveals a meadow of green,

 laced across with sheep so white,

and the shepherd’s dog watching close by.

 A Morgan does prance across my view,

 while my thoughts wonder of my trickling stream

 where my line can hover with fly in tow

and I might catch my supper.

nice view out your window I do proclaim. might that Morgan be a Piers Morgan, or maybe per chance a wee bit of some Captain Morgan? Then chase away those pesky fisheys so that I might nap.

Very peaceful and calming. You make the reader feel as if they are gazing through the same window.

[Dream Weaver]

Beautiful imagery here Cherrie...
It felt as though I was looking through
that same window...Well done...

Reminds me of Thoreau and his cabin in the woods outside of Boston. Simplicity and elegance all rolled into one.

[Allen Smuckler]

You really made me feel the peacefulness of the day, Cherrie..and reminded me of my youth on a rainy day....looking out my window...
thank you for a trip down memory lane, with this well penned poem...

I love sitting in front of my window, hot cup of coffee in hand, and taking in all that nature tosses my way. You've managed to allow your readers to visualize a beautiful moment in time. Thank you.

Beautiful, I felt like I was there. Love the open lines, and the imagery made the poem come alive.
