Ebony Calls Collaboration With Poet Joseph May

Haunted by a Black Bird sitting in a tree
Gray clouds swirling are all I can see
Confusion is wrapped up in a mystery
As a Black Bird tilts its head, looking at me

In the midst of winter on branches bare
The Ebony bird continues to stare
A storm is coming as its caws declare
Soon, snowflakes will be everywhere

Chilling Ebony calls, with Ivory on the way
The eye of the storm is nearby today
Cackling answers will come into play
To unravel life's clues, here where I stay

Snowfall begins, the storm is extreme
All through the night, it falls as it deems
I drift off to sleep in this wintry theme
Haunted by a Black Bird cawing in my dream

Heidi Sands and Joseph May

Vijay Pandit March 4, 2018 at 5:00 PM Excellent poem by two great creators..I enjoyed the flow, and smooth tone foretelling arrival of storm through the eyes of nature. Kudos for this lovely collaboration, Heidi and Joseph. Heidi Sands March 4, 2018 at 5:13 PM Thanks Vijay. It did have a photo I took of the bird in the tree here, but the photos I upload of my own don't stay showing for some reason. Your comment is appreciated! :)
