Blue and Bliss

Sienna... Sounded like silk looked like silk it felt like silk rolling over her tongue over her skin every hair on her neck standing on end Hackles rippling hers and his as he turned his steely blue head towards her Eye to eye with something so wild she felt her soul succumb Light headed she sighed nay swooned scratching Kestrel off her list 4.7.2020

Sweetness! I still remember every detail of my first sighting. Actually the canvas in my avatar was a painting of a Kestrel, before in a fit I painted over it. Wish I got a photo. Good morning good afternoon and goodnight!

Very visual Muse Maureen good to see a Kestrel poem that takes its time to reveal itself. Lovely work.

Always wonderful, and this, truly beautiful Maureen. When I was younger and wanting to be an ornathologist, my brother and I would always do the annual Christmas Bird Count in our area. Spotting one not already on the list was a heart pumping thrilling moment. You've expressed this so well Maureen. Thank you always.
