Fish Hawk

There it is - a dot in the blue. There it is - black wings in the sun. There is - a feathered diving. Here it comes look at the parting windward! Look - a bolt of fright a flight of lightning Fish wriggling- slivering rainbow clawed hook hung in the hanging spray fly-falling bird up-risen wings boating airward mouse run snake path in the scrub food - baby food open red mouths - nesting. mouse got - too slow fish gone. Mouse swallowing last breath.
