Bird on a Wire

A bird on a wire
Taking in the world
Looking around about to fly
Into the beauty of the sky

Ruffling of feathers
Body tensing for take-off
Jumping from the limb
Flapping of the wings

As it soars majestically into the air
Stretching it wings to full length
Sweeping down into the Valley
Hunting for its prey

Screeching through the air
Stretching its claws out
Grab what is his
An afternoon delight
