Cattle

They seem meant to share.
Ambling up from the creek,
their heads bowed
as if reverencing the landscape,
they nourish
with a brief glimpse of acceptance
that twists my neck
then immediately passes
as I hurtle down the interstate.

Keep your eyes on the road, Bob...
I miss having our cattle...
but that's another poem.

Great to see your initials show up here this morning!

Lovely pastoral view you've shared, though speeding by, you take an increment of time to pause and 'smell the roses' hehehehe.

Actually you seem to have not been graced with the scent of your vision, which in some ways, makes it more of a blessing, I'm sure.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Bob

I know the view from your car window, is made more beautiful by your eyes.  Thanks for sharing it.

RMW< enjoyed this read, a scene vividly and beautifully described.

Nice view, I find cattle never get enough attention considering all they do for us humans. Thank you.

Thank you for the Kodak moment---so often overlooked as we barrel on by.
