G-Man Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 things pop into my head from time to time..hope you enjoy.. The first hints of color apppear on the trees Golden rod and ragweed blooming making some sneeze A chill in the morning and heavy dew A cold rain makes everything smell new Red apples hanging on the tree Ouch one just fell and hit me. Birds flock together in anticipation of heading south Squirrels and chipmunks carrying nuts in their mouth. Soft crunching of footsteps in fresh fallen leaves A buck's antlers shaking a tree. A swoosh of an arrow the hiss of the string I sure hope I used the right pin. Crimson puddles on the leaves This is what early fall means to me. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 It's good that you mentioned "early" Fall at the end, because I had a different vision pop into my head: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I didn't know that ears could hurt so bad; Its almost time to go and I sure am glad. I haven't had feeling in my toes for hours; this bitter cold is testing my powers. I'm shaking like a leaf, can't pull back my bow; With 35 pounds of clothes on maybe it is now time to go. Well here I am at last, the truck; glad I made it but just by luck. That tired old battery is barely enough; the engine caught but is running rough. I sure do wish that I had four wheel drive; Maybe then I could get home alive. Oh what fun fighting the wheel and driving in this snow; It's all ice underneath in this two below. Oh...here we go right straight for the ditch; 10 inches of snow makes driving a bitch. The tow truck should be here any minute; This hunt seemed like a good idea until I actually got out in it. Finally I'm home thinking about it all; Damn, I knew that Winter was not all that far behind Fall. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- All inspired by real events .....lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
