Migration

Wind blows bitter cold,

The loud, honking geese fly south

     In chevron pattern.

Pointing to warmer climate.....

Their annual vacation.

Wonderful sight the geese in formation, and a beautiful species of bird. Nice one Francine >> James

You know, Francine, when I lived in NJ I would see large groups of geese flying south. But in all my years in Florida, I have not seen them arrive here. Wonder exactly where they head. Really enjoyed your tanka, especially the line about the "Chevron pattern." Love, Carolyn
