The Smiley Formation

Dawn has cracked the horizon With fiery red open greeting Invites birds fly sky emblazon With colors to start day moving The crows are delighted to catch Gentle air currents and swiftly glide Seeking a grounded spot to snatch A delicate meal __ grubs that hide As they fly low in formation A smiley face granted to see They start to entertain me Before place sentinel in tree

Hi Sara. That smiley face photo was so inspiring. I am amazed by the diverse poetry that has been written for Carolyn's contest. My favorite part in yours is, "...fiery red open greeting Invites birds fly sky emblazon..." Your imagery is marvelous. Good luck in the contest. Lovingly, Dane Ann
