Egret In Flight
the setting sun
silhouettes
a great white egret
in sky of marigold
so vividly;
a portrait of grace in flight!
it's long neck, arched;
outstretched wings
rhythmically flapping,
flying off
to an untold destination.
look at it!
just look at it go...
up, up, up,
up and away!
bye bye, bird...
