The last day
of December
black dots
punctuate
the verdant grass
flash floods
the field--a pond
deer nibble cut corn
rhododendrons budding
in the Blue Ridge Mountains
unseasonable weather
El Nino
traffic startles
the crows
a black blanket
soars to the pines
squawk, squawk, squawking
a scarlet ribbon
flutters through fog
the cardinal
heralds
a New Year!
--Brenda Kay Ledford
I wish my blogger friends a very Happy New Year!
