September & Day 260 CJSM-bookIII

 
September
 
 
Fleecy white clouds traverse deep-cerulean sky
Temperatures cooling as less warm days by-fly
 
Blue-winged teal begin their early migration
Pre-cursor fall winds stir still water gyration
 
Search place-secluded to hunt in populated world slanted
Kind leather-faced farmer pronounces “Permission granted”
 
Duck blind constructed with camouflage corn stalks
Lure in the dark-“V’s” with protracted duck call talks
 
Watch the birds set their wings, get ready right now boys
A most beautiful show as they flair amongst set decoys
 
This good day has dawned and lived and gone
Red-setting sun chorus hums this hunter’s song
 
Tomorrow at sunrise in that chilly cold dew
Once more find treasure as onward fowl-flew
 
Ever southward to some ancient calling nesting place
Over white cotton ball puffs follow unseen sky trace
 
While in the right rhythm of God’s good clean earth
Life-cycle continues with each new day’s dawn-birth
 
Amen!
 
 
Plus:
 
 
 
 
Day 260
 
 
Piano recitals
 
 
There seems to be no end to the talents of our progeny; they can do absolutely anything!
Lady Candice plays the piano and several other instruments; the girls follow her lead.
Or a guy with zero ability and even less talent, I might “play” a radio if it is plugged in and on station, I sure enough got a plethora of “talent” all around me.
I have spent myriad hours at recitals, concerts, performances, practices, lessons---Whew!
The efforts have paid off---these girls’ talents are most entertaining…and, natural.
I do not regret those many hours; just being with these children is a reward in, and of, itself!
Every once in a while, they will “hog-tie” the illiterate Neanderthal and drag me to some fancy-schmancy doings at some “opera”-house, or such; I always demand a front-row seat---Hell! If I gotta go there anyway…might as well be close enough should some of that culture slop out that I get a good portion of it on---Me! (Waste not; want not!)
Now---for some “culture”-music…where did Candy put those new batteries!? Damn!
 
Ah! Cookie Jar Sweet ‘Elvis!? Oh! Elvis!?” Memories!
