Nature's Law
Charcoal dark, gimlet sharp
eyes observing, searching.
Lake below, surface calm,
Tiny ripple, silver flash,
Extended talons swooping down.
Prey ensnared, life expired,
Soaring upward, eagle wings.
Rugged mountain nest on high,
Ravenous young, sumptuous bounty,
Shimmering scattered silver scales.
A testament to
Nature’s glory,
Nature’s cruelty.
