During a low tide, it fled me in derision. Dinky waders reveal marvels on the sand. Stoic eagles soar over the sky and expand. Will scan from high plying their acute vision. As the dark decreased, a few birds wailed. Rapid, pointed beaks and claws at night. Fell from the sky, similar to an arrow flight. The weakest of them, his body, failed. There was no eulogy to escort him. This was a tragic event, and the bard wept. His swollen heart bled, and an empty crept. The poor soul died; the glow turned dim.

The fall from the heights can be quite unexpected ! The sensitive poet mourns and wails over every fall ! A great poem with a substratum beyond the surface layer !

In the wilderness, death comes and goes without pallbearers and those who mourn. Sorrowful with profound meaning Lasaad. A fine poem!...ab
