If It Has Feathers, I’ll Chase It

Goldeneyes scurry out of sight,
marvellous but skittish visitors

A Downy’s rat-a-tat captures my eye
his squeaky-toy pitch eliciting a smile

The greatest capture of all
the elusive Kingfisher, caught mid trill

Winged

Heron’s wings span six-feet widegreat grey appendages in rhythmic flight Dragonfly wings are camouflaged, propel elongated bodies who hover in sight Monarch’s wings are stained-glass delicatewith each flutter, sprinkle fantasies of delight My wings, imaginary, give me faith and hopemechanisms of spirituality, my soul’s fire ignite.
