None the sun


 None the sun

Johnclarestokes 


Saturday we counted

As a day of a peaceable existence 

Earnest and his hens

Conway and his hens

Free ranging without fighting

Though our gridiron teams lost

and Melanie fell and hurt her foot

she still made us pancakes and bacon

Roscoe and I spent time at Watertown

with Kevin and Marion

both fishing as squirrel arrived

to talk of magnet fishing

the anhinga and cormorant catching 

while three eagles were spotted

without Bill Chandler whom we missed

and a pond slider scared Roscoe

off the dock

after filling up with gas and kitty litter

bought for Mel

my sister came by for me to 

draw and cut out some big scissors

from cardboard for Halloween 

then all the chickens sans two

who roost in the trees

were led in the pen I spent time

rearranging 

in hopes they decide eggs

to lay on the next sunny day.
