Swift Wing of Hawk The light cloud aloft floats like a soft fluffy pillow The light cloud aloft floats like a soft fluffy pillow Swift wing of hawk through a white misty billow Swift wing of hawk through a white misty billow Swift wing of hawk floats aloft through misty light The fluffy cloud billow like a soft pillow white Its feathers now tilting toward new direction Its feathers now tilting toward new direction Eye looking down to the earth with affection Eye looking down to the earth with affection Tilting with the earth to eye new affection Looking down now toward its feathers direction Hawk’s circling wings sing in ruffling hush Hawk’s circling wings sing in ruffling hush And come round to land in a blueberry bush And come round to land in a blueberry bush To land, hawk’s wings come and sing in a hush Circling round in ruffling blueberry bush In a light hush aloft, a hawk floats it’s wing Fluffy new feathers now billow and sing Looking eye to the earth, in tilting direction To land toward the blueberry bush with affection Through a misty white cloud, like soft pillow of down Hawk’s swift ruffling wings come circling round Elizabeth Santos |

I don't know how you do it, Elizabeth! No form seems to be beyond your reach! I'm still trying to do one little haiku and can't seem to do even that. Very well done! Denise |
