once taken to flight
every bird is graceful
spread your wings and fly
Month: May 2017
2017.05.25: panhandler
eyes gleaming bright
singing proudly for handouts
grackle at stoplight
2017.05.24: dampened
tail feathers tucked low
miserable conditions
not fit for flying
2017.05.23: boundless
rock wall is weeping
long has water been flowing
to seep through stone hearts
2017.05.22: exposed
caught out in open
nothing to shield us from brunt
nature’s raw power
nothing to do but turn back
let storm gusts carry us home
Longing For Water
