Bayou Moon

Nature Poetry. Nature in the bayou

It’s a good morning in the bayou, as a breathtaking view of dawn’s light breaking out.
Beaming rays of sun spilling all about.
The morning fog is gone, and darkness washed away.
A spider spins a web of silver gleeming on display.
A mockingbird sings a bayou tune.
The rustle from the tree reveals a raccoon.
Under the pines a snake shed it’s skin.
Wild ducks soar above in the bayou wind.
It’s a goodnight in the bayou, as a breathtaking view of moonlight shining down.
A mole is tucked away in it’s mound.
I hear a busy beaver construction sound.
Shotguns crack the stillness and set birds in flight.
Boats drop thier nets by moonlight.
Crickets chirping notes of song.
Alligators creeping along.
Silkworms spin silk into a cocoon.
High above shines the big bayou moon.
