Louisiana Morning Before The Rain

Poems From The Porch

The field is glowing purple and yellow this morning.

Distant thunder punctuates the dove’s gentle coo.

A young duck just disappeared into the water oak

and emerged again to land on a pine branch.

There is a stillness in the air that belies the coming storm,

and a calm in my spirit that welcomes it all.
