A gray morning means
a gray sunrise on the swamp –
the sky just lightens.

Swamp walk this morning –
geese and mallards congregate
past the beaver’s lodge.

Weirdly warm weather –
shouldn’t complain but it’s not
normal for Freeville.

Heard whistle of a
wood duck as it lifted from
the swamp this morning.

Early morning walk
takes me to the nearby swamp –
sunrise, ducks, and geese.

Beautiful day out –
means no one will come to the
reading later — argh.

Beavers built a lodge
on the swamp’s edge — mound of sticks –
some logs felled nearby.

Dark as pitch morning
with pin-prick points of light — stars –
piercing the black sky.

Gorgeous day today –
leaves are drifting down from the
big maple out back.

Such a dark morning –
walking through the woods brought an
ominous feeling.
