(3 MINUTE QUICK SKETCH)..Late summer days, blustery winds and stately Cottonwood trees moving in rhythm to the cloudy broken sky showing peeps of azure blue here and there ..perfect picture of nature except for power line that raced through the tranquility of the scene although, six lovely Doves were perched comfortably on the intruding power line which I like to refer to as a hot wire.
Suddenly there was a flurry of wings and the doves scattered in every direction as we caught a movement scurrying out from the leaves, precariously balanced on the Hot Wire…nope not the neighbor’s cat but a fat furry Squirrel.
We burst into spiels of laughter until our eyes were wet with tears. This Squirrel was a total acrobat..first he race across the wire, then sat down, then tipped over and not to gracefully uprighted himself and was gone in a flash into the trees again.
My theory on this whole scenario..always look up..keep focused and don’t look down…. and always carry a scrap of paper and pencil..camera is good too..(I never have it on at the right time). Laugh lots it is good for the soul!!
