A poem a day, in September 2016 – #2
pigeons
wheeling around
they circle
across a grey sky
bending the air
the flock is one
I know
magpie
sharpening his beak
on the high branch
every leaf is gone
this place
is exclusive to
the black and white king
Now Go!
rosella red
thinks I don’t see her
squabble squawk
pretty thing
you mean no harm
what harm could you
from blue

“Black and white king”…That’s a clever epithet… because in chess it’s always one or the other.

Hi Kurtis.
They are a bit chess piece in that respect, aren’t they? A few of them seem to to call our backyard ‘home’ and it’s a pleasure to observe them.
Cheers,
Frank

Hi Patricia. Thanks so much for this nomination.
I consider it an honour, but I’ll pass. I don’t really consider myself much of a blogger, and concentrate more on the poetry side of it.
What delights me, is that you’ve enjoyed reading some of my work. I can’t ask for more than that.
Thank you.
Cheers,
Frank
