Rural Commute

Two hundred mile trip

Country highway lanes

Driving to my job

Watching rural terrain


Buzzards circle road

Nature's cleanup crew

Cat hunts in long grass

Looks for tiny shrew


Red hawk in treetop

Surveys farmer's land

Deer are munching corn

Antlers broad and grand


Owl is chased by crows

Swoops into tall trees

Boxes near green fields

Contain honey bees


Hill side autumn glow

Orange, yellow, red

Pumpkins in brown field

Loaded on a sled


Pulling black carriage

Horse trots down highway

Mane flies in brisk wind

Passing bales of hay


Black shapes are ahead

Crossing road in race

Slow down to avoid

Wild turkey chase


In cold winter months

Bare trees frosted white

Family homes in hills

Glow with morning light


Near cold winter's end

Sheds are puffing smoke

Tree sap boiled down

Maple syrup stroke


Foals bound in a race

Cows graze with offspring

Brown fades into green

With warm winds of spring


All is not ideal

Struggles can be seen

Sometimes life is rough

Life for some careens


When trip draws to close

City skyline near

Traffic multiplies

Frantic city sphere
