Reflecting on Red

Red was the colour

of the morning sun

as we walked along the dike

Red was the colour

(okay reddish)

of pealing paint on a dike post

Leaves turned red overnight

Berries shone red

in that morning sun

all ready for any hungry critters

or perhaps Rusty pups to pick

Then later on back at the ranch

I returned to grey

Goosey, goosey gander

Reflecting red in his eye!
