'October Sun - Swan Lake'
oil on wood panel
8 x 10
The October sun's warmth feels like a stranger
A short respite from the rain and wind
Sharing this lull with the Towhee's and Jay's
Sounding their warning calls as the Cooper's
Glides low over our heads
Hunting with all the avian activity below it
I make a new memory with each blink
Breathing it in along with the scent of
Damp leaves and dead grass and the warmth...
