Awakened this morning to nearly a hundred black birds making their Spring journey north. It was quite breathtaking to see them all gathered in the boughs of the trees taking respite, than a chorus began as they took flight on their journey.

 

 

 

Birds Fly Migrating On open sky A chartered course found Resting on lofty winter boughs Swooping like magical kites, a swirling dance of flight With miles still to go, fearless in their mission, cackling caws singing in synchronized rhythm. March 20, 2017

Your use of simple, yet descriptive words, are easy to digest and strike a common cord of familiarity. Emile.
