A Large Bird Flew Into the Yard

At the dusk of day A large bird seen flew Then slowly landed On the ground folded Its large huge wings Then was very still Watching for awhile Pondering why so still Only to discover It was a large piece Of paper shaped a bird

Darlene, thanks for the nice words. Hey, I like this one. It happened to my girlfriend one day in the yard. She mistook a still gray plastic bag for a dove. It was so amusing, we both laughed for several minutes. Then I went and got it. Take care.

Sometimes these things deceive us, I suppose our first impression is we think we see something and on closer inspection find it wasnt what we thought. Tom

Hello Tom, exactly. Because when the bird landed and stayed very still for a long, long time. I looked I noticed that it ws a huge piece of paper shaped by the wind to resemble a bird. enjoy your evening my friend.
