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

Frosty morning walk
beneath a blanket of stars –
Venus hanging low.

Morning walk leaves me
dissatisfied — who knows why –
too much time to think?

Early morning walk
through wet grass reminds me to
not walk in sandals.

Heard a wood thrush sing
(or was it a hermit thrush?)
on this morning’s walk.

Heavy morning frost –
mist rising from the swamp as
sun hits the water.

Morning chorus of
the frogs and red-winged blackbirds –
din from the wetlands.

Walked on old railroad
bed — surprised two deer who ran
off helter skelter.

Snow covers the ground –
surprise for the morning walk –
slipping and sliding.

Peepers peeped from low
spots in the meadow — lovely
pre-dawn spring music.
