in the nature

I am stressed,
The grey heron is worried,
In turn it flies away,
Shriek.

The frogs are eating,
So there’s life
In the muddy, green pond.





Je suis stressé,
Le héron gris est inquiet,
à son tour il s’envole,
Pousse des cris rauques.

Les grenouilles croassent,
Il y a donc de la vie
Dans la mare boueuse et verte.

Lots going on. Contemplation over the stressed, worried heron, the shriek (I can see him taking off).

Yes, the muddy green pond is full of life even if it is not the kind of life we would want but it reads like it is a nice habitat for some species of nature. Thanks for sharing. Sara K

We tread the same path as I feel depressed today. Still a lovely poem.
