November, not cold
the morning mists across the land unfold.
flushing finches from muddy fields, they flee into trees.

Groups of goldfinches,greenfinches and yellowhammers search for seeds from teasel and thistle, rarely seeing days like these.

Photographing dew drops in my mind, forming on the branches of birch.
While across farmers fields, fieldfares in noisy chattering groups, on hedgerow branches perch.

A solitary seagull flies high above my head,
oh lord how i wish i was dead,
so i could return to earth as a bird, free instead.

This dreary,dismal,doleful day, drifts in mists and brings lonliness to stay.

In a word, glorious.  As usual, very beautiful and melodical.  Even the simplest of statements exudes such beauty and power. I love your work.  From a now junior member, to a fellow junior member, love in the simplest form is your words.

Junior Member,
