Ya Old Crow Ya old crow yellow beaked beady eyed walkin’ ‘round all clumsy like raucous noise splits your face your caw has not one bit of grace arguin’ with your mate from the tree tops early, late then you take off begin to soar in the sun your sleekness pours gliding, rising falling low your beautied wing will ebb and flow you hardly are the bumbling one when soaring ‘neath the springtime sun a raven’s kin is what you seem where evil lurks a nightmare’s dream but you oh, comic one, are best at feathering a tree top nest so sing or chortle your blatant ways and I will look for your best days ©April 26, 2002 Whether on the shoal or on the shore, |

CAW! CAW! said the crow upon the branch and bough Sitting there way up high watching us from black eye Such a sound I do lament from a black bird you sent Please take back this bird and give us your solemn word! Nice poem Virginia...liked this.. |

Like your bird, V. (I'm a bit of a crow fan myself.) "Grab a pen, grab some paper, do yourself a little favor." e |
