A Beautiful Blackbird

Pure Gold rings
Around pearly black eyes ~
The iridescent Blackbird stands still.

Nesting material locked in beak ~
The colour matching her
Pure Gold rings.

Reflections stare back
Of myself and the scene
Around pearly black eyes.

Amazed, I observe
This beautiful creature ~
The iridescent Blackbird stands still.
