Man and the Bird

Haibun: Man and the Bird

Something is opaque in the sky; he cannot read it. There has been some throbbing in the heart for quite some time but he is mentally uncertain about the emotion behind it. He is thoughtful between any action or inaction.

eagle’s direction is fixed
wings closed, it dives into the lake-
a fish dazzles in its talons

I love birds. There are times I wish I was a bird so I could fly away. Now would be a great day to fly. Your pen did a good write. Have fun writing ................
