now in the forest
the call of many corvids
murder announcement

Please join in the haiku love
and... for your (hopefully) reading pleasure
a bit of free verse poetry about a
dance
the tongue of Zephyr
reaches tentatively toward the
gathering
exploring softly
gently licking around and through the group invitation
they move and sway in time to his
gentle touch
gathering momentum
dancing together
in tune to his stronger, braver moves
suddenly a crescendo
as his movements push
with a final seductive twirl
then slowly, gently he slips away
leaving the slender bodies resting
their substance glistening in sunlit warmth
silent
awaiting his return
Blessings for your weekend and beyond
Your murder of crows is wuite lively
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend
Much👩🎨love
Love your haiku - and your windswept poem. I danced with the words. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteShivery haiku and image!
ReplyDeleteOh how I love these dark winged birds! And your haiku and this twirling dance that leaves my heart longing... and to end it all with the chimes... such gifts dear Judie. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI put out food for our neighborhood crows every morning. Maybe that's what keeps them from announcing that I am about to be murdered! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely poetry and blessings to you for the weekend

You've shared two of my favorite things. Not, one of them is not murder, but I do love the sight of a murder of crow... especially in the fall.
ReplyDeleteSo much passion in the free very poem. I can almost hear the heavy breathing coming out of the lines.
Two very different but captivating aural pieces. There's a breathless quality in both as well. In the first, the there's almost a feel of holding one's breath while we wait for the crows to deliver their message. The second has us breathless from the sensual play of the wind on the chimes.
ReplyDeleteAlways good, and interesting, to read the words you post :)
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
