Bird of Prey

A flash of wing............. Exploded feathers....... Bird of prey Nature's way Raptor's thing The Falcon's speed Victim,pays no heed Aerial violence, in the sunlit blue silence The Hawk........ flashing by High speed dart in the sky The kestrel............ Hovering above ground The assassin............ Kills without a sound Mighty Eagle............ Lord of the sky Feathers of gold Mighty Eagle, So bold Bird of prey........... Slash of beak....... Rip of talon Hunting, the only day Flashing shadow Feathers ,glow Prey ,to die Bird of prey Lord of sky The sun,at your back You, make your attack The keen eye, surveys, all the sky Masters of the air Eagles lair Compete, if you dare Your life ,not to spare

Delightful read. I read a book about a man one time and I can not reminder the title right now. He kept a falcon. That story opened my eyes more to these magnificent creatures. The way that you put it together is great. Keep writing. Sara
