The Golden Eagle

The golden eagle flies through billowed clouds training his keen eye on slight movement below. Swooping, he clutches a hare. Swift is the kill; now to a tree he makes his way, carrying his prey while calling to his fledgling in the nest. Written 10/14/15 For the Golden Eagle contest of Shadow Hamilton Words used: Flies, clouds, Tree, nest, Fledgling, Calling, swooping.

I can't find a comment from me and was so sure I'd left one on this talented write. To meet the criteria in this succinct poem, that reads naturally and easily, impressed me when I first read it and it still does ... Congratulations ... CayCay
