A black bird ponders. Wind suddenly blows. Below on the ground, autumn leaves swirl. She gave him a letter. He gave a rose. A raven has all the time in the world.

Thanks John! I sometimes think my poems are overliteral, with the occasional nonsensical one. I was trying to find a place in the middle.
