GRAY SCALE
In the park, making a half mile lap
behind me "haha" comes cawing.
Eyebrow raised, I chance a look
of which the bird is unsuspectingBEADY EYES
blink twice, again it moves its yap
"hawhaw", now directed at me, drawling.
At the edge of this place's little nook
my presence this crow is objecting.OMINOUS
Wind fiddles with hair, feathers, and caps.
Continuing with my walk, I withdraw.
Here's the thing, the hook,
it curiously follows, as I was expecting.GLORIOUS SUN
awakes from its cloud-blanketed nap
and the avian halts its squawking.
My leave of nature I took
the crows stare on, reflecting.
