An Early Autumn Stroll

A welcomed cooling came upon this day
Much relief from the heat of yesterday
I took my dog for a walk, we were strolling
in the quite of this foggy Sunday morn.

Still dark outside, Halloween lights aglow
Souls are still sleeping inside. A cup of coffee
the scent of toast fills my dimly lit kitchen
recitations from the Writer’s Almanac playing
while I lounge back in my chair, with coffee,
toast and Chipper at my side.

I look out my open window and begin smile at
The birthing of a new day and mused oh, what
A blessed man I am to enjoy the finest part of day!
Our gracious Lord allowing me this time alone
except with chip and his chewy new bone.
